[Midnight Openings - do you like them or not?]

I like them better, personally.

 

I usually have difficulty sleeping the night of Thanksgiving (probably sugar high), anyway, so this is a welcomed change.

[How many people are on your list??? Who are they???]

6, and that's including 2 dogs.

[When to open presents?]

One thing on Christmas Eve; the rest on Christmas morning.

[Whats you favorite thing about The Holidays?]

I also think people are nicer around Christmas.

Excellent point, and I fully agree.

[Christmas Trees...Real or Fake? merged]

I've always had a real one. Love the smell of pine.

[Trans-Siberian Orchestra Concert Dates]

Missed them in Buffalo last time, don't plan on missing them this time around.

[Christmas traditions?]

Midnight mass, open 1 gift, help w/ dinner...

[What do you do the night of Christmas???]

Christmas Night - nothing really, except for checking out the specs on my gifts.

[When did you stop....]

Santa gives me stocking stuffers, not presents.

 

[Favorite Christmas Movie]

Home Alone, National Lampoon's, Elf, Polar Express, The Santa Clause...

[Another BF topic.... Your BF Traditions]

Hmm, traditions usually are...

 

We always go to Media Play and/or Circuit City. Me and my brother might go to Best Buy this BF.

 

Always wake up around 4:00 AM.

 

That's about it really.

[Christmas Decorations]

Decorating is a HUGE deal around here.

 

We try to have the best house on the street, we usually do. We start decorating about a week after Thanksgiving. We're going to have a really good setup this year, our best yet.

[What is your worst/best black friday story]

2 good things happened...

 

I got the double layer DVD burner for 40 dollars.

 

Second was I got a cheap MP3 player at Target.

[Weather?]

For Buffalo,

 

There was little (if any) snow. But I remember a bitter cold that morning.

 

I was angry that there was no snow, last year was not a good winter.

 

I want snow!!

[2005 BF deals rumored to be better this year]

I heard on the news last night that the BF deals are suppose to better and there are suppose to be more of them. Retailer are hopeing to make up for a slow sales year. Lets hope so! What do you think? Does anyone work in retail and have any hints as to what might be on sale yet?

For some reason, the deals didn't seem too good last year.

 

Hopefully it'll be different this year.

[What do you look for on BF?]

Mostly electronics.

 

Like stuff for the computer, burners, speakers, etc.

[snow on christmas]

We don't get a white Christmas that often, but when we do I am sooo happy! I love having snow!

Southern Illinois?

 

Sounds like a place that gets alot of snow, hmm..

 

What kind of weather do you have around then?

[Which Holiday Music...]

Do you listen to on your ride to the stores.

 

I usually have the Elvis Christmas Album, Neil Diamond Christmas, and another CD with all mixed.

 

What about you guys?

[Cut in line...]

Was kind of impossible to cut in line last year,

 

There was no line, lmao.

[What was your best deal last year?]

Getting a double layer DVD burner for only 40 dollars.

 

That was the best one by far.

[worst item you bought]

Nothing so far.

 

Pretty good luck I guess you could say.

[snow on christmas]

I love a whole lot of snow, blizzards are the best.

 

I want what Buffalo had a few years back, 7 feet of snow. Not for Black Friday, I couldn't even get out of the house.

[How Do You Pay for Items On BF?]

Just regular cash, lol.

[How many...]

As I said in the other thread, Ill just slip on a hoody and pants, and just leave.

 

Nothing special, lol.

[Biggest/Hardest-to-Find Holiday 2005 Item?]

Hmm, Im thinking of getting the XBOX 360 for my birthday possibly.

 

The graphics Ive seen so far are pretty good.
