Our WM has been good about bringing toys close to the toy section so far. I never worry much about them because if I go to the Christmas decoration section, I can look out into the garden center/greenhouse and see what's out there so I know what's coming through that door. lol They never bring things out the layaway doors because the line is too long and it's too crowded. They do bring things out at the doors by the milk in our's which the doors go back into the warehouse I believe.

This will be my first time trying to get things online before going to the store, I know that not all of the items will be available online. I am just not sure what time they will start giving the sale prices online.

I don't mind the cold, the crowds, or the lines. They just don't seem to matter when I'm that hyped up for bf.lol

I used to be a manager at Jack in the Box so I got my oldest kids their reloadable gift cards for their stockings because they were always coming in there with their friends and with their gift cards they could go when I wasn't at work.

Not sure, but right now they are locked in the game case. In the past that has been "a good thing" because they took the games out for us. Got my fingers crossed.

It's a wonderful kind of crazy.

I have been nice SO FAR! lol I'm not sure if I will still be able to say that when I'm finished shopping on bf.

Right now, our WM has the GameBoys with the other games. I'm hoping they leave them there so that I can get a couple of them as soon as I get to WM at 1 or 2am. I'll do my darnedest to get that laptop and those 2 cameras, I'll cheer the rest of the gang on from my spot in line in electronics, when it's all over, I'll hopefully be happy with my goodies.lol Hope everyone who posts on Gottadeal gets all that they go after!!!lol:nahnah:

I probably do, but they are good kids and they deserve it. It comes from my mom and my grandparents going out of their way to make sure I got pretty much everything I wanted for Christmas when I was little, even if they didn't have much. I feel like I need to give them alot. I always stop and think, how would I feel if I were them? So, I over do it to keep them smilimg and they always end up smiling even if they don't get what they want. There is always someone who will try to say that I give them too much, or spoil them, I just ask them WHO HAD THESE KIDS? Then they usually shut the h*ll up!!! lol

Congrats ebony!!!! Thanks Ross and Brad, I really enjoyed the chat last night. You guys are great.

Will, thank you so much for clearing that up for me, too. I am a regular, usually at least 4-5 times a week, at WalMart here in Paris, Tx. The question I have is, in year's past I have found that the more "in-demand" an item is, the fewer our store gets. Example: year before last, the GameCubes, our store only got 13 of those and about 10 of the digital cameras that year. I am hoping to get two digital cameras and a laptop and I just don't see it happening. Why do some WMs use tickets for those things and others don't? Thank you for all of your help.

I don't remember our WalMart ever having grills or desks on BF ad. But our's seems to be different from most as I have found out here.lol

Same here, our lawn and garden stuff is on clearance now, but not much left. We only have one shelf full of that stuff now. The rest of the area is Halloween and Christmas. I am getting a little upset about how long it is taking them to get the Christmas stuff all set up though.

Oh, no I haven't seen any extras in the store and I have been going everyday to keep up with what's in stock. I was there today and didn't see any.

Which stores?

So, the main ad scan is for Friday and Saturday, right? That is what I am thinking but not sure.

I will probably get the coffee maker this year. Other than the chopper, all of the "cheapy" appliances I've gotten have been great. I got tired of my girls borrowing my hair dryer so last year I got them each one and they work really well for them. Also, son loves the iron that I got last year. Again, tired of him using mine on trips and always worried he'll lose it.lol

I hope our's does that, but they never have used tickets before.

Do people who do not BF shop call you crazy? I think that it is a sport. I look at it like men going deer hunting.lol I have a list and it is fun to hunt items down and bring them home to wrap. It's my kind of fun. So far, I haven't gone BF shopping without getting everything on my list. Some years some things have been hrd to get, some close to impossible, but I haven't met a deal I haven't got!lol However, this year has me a little scared. I think that getting two digital cameras, laptop, and everything else at WalMart will either make me or break me.lol:gd_purple

Mom takes a nap while I get the lists together and two youngest sons will be spending the night at her house with grandpa so that three oldest can go with us and help out. I will probably not sleep from about 3am on Thanksgiving morning til about 1 or 2pm on Friday. I am in charge of the "operation" this year so it will be up to me to change batteries in walkie talkies and to get everyone's list ready of things they are to get. Hopefully for all of my hard work and dedication to the "cause" Santa will be EXTRA nice to me this year!!!LOL

Since WalMart changed the hours on us this year, we will be leaving extra early. We figure online shopping around midnight, then to Denny's for a quick bite to eat, then to WM no later than 2am. I think we should get to WM about 1am, but I lost the vote!!!lol As for lunch and dinner on BF, it's leftovers and everyone knows not to wake me up unless they are bleeding from the eyeballs.lol

Hubby and I have Tracphone and son has Virgin Mobile. The Virgin Mobile seems to be better on minutes, they last longer on it, even for a teen. So, we are getting the three oldest Virgin Mobiles at Radio Shack. They will be 19.99:wizard:

Big Lots, JCPenney, Sears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weellllll, The chopper is quite a touchy subject with me. I thought I was getting such a great deal! When I opened it up I was so embarrassed I didn't want anyone else to see it so I hid it in a drawer and it is still there. Still in the box. I love the sandwich maker, the kids love it too. The iron has been great and so has the hair dryers.

We don't have one of those. What kind of store is it?
