One car load We have a quad cab so that that does not fit in the back gets flipped between the front seat and the bed.

We usually stop by the 24 hour gas station on the way I get a cappuchino sp and DD gets hot cocoa and something from the deli (I know the ladies that work there so they warm her up something for breakfast). I am usually way to excited to eat until after all the rush ... and she is usually hungry again by then. Last year Sears had donuts they were handing out to people in line. It was really nice. :)

Comfy shorts or sweats and a tshirt. I can't remember if it was last year or the year before it was cold and rainy so we wore sweats and I jacked my hubbies flannel lined rain slicker.

Welcome and welcome back everyone . I am fairly new to posting at GD but have been a lurker for a while. I am in NE Texas born and raised here. I have two kids, two cats, and at the moment a dog (stray that has adopted us).

We bought a tv at sears about four years back think it was a 28 inch at sears I cannot remember the price but it was good enough to get me in line early so it must have been pretty good. Anyway we left it there because I did not want to leave it on the back of the truck all day. I came back at 12 to get my TV and they had sold it lol. They gave me a 32 inch to replace it. It was a much better TV and I got it for the same price .

The kids usually are looking at the ads a soon as they come out here. They know that if they want something big they better hope it is on sale and they also know Thanksgiving is the last day to make major changes to the "list". We go thru the ads for a final time Thursday afternoon. I usually go to sleep about 7 and get up about 1. Get ready stop by the same gas station and get coffee and then head out. I am getting ansy lol.

DD was so worried we would not get ours last year because we had been at Sears and Best Buy. She was SO happy when she saw a big pile of them when we walked in the door. So I got one and so did she. Which was good because she ended up breaking one of them while we were putting up decorations this year.

Wow ours is very organized. They only give out at one door and they count before hand and let you know where the end of the line is. They also had security outside along with donuts and coffee . DD was excited that she got a GC too ... she was 12 then.

I have not been in a good while. Last time I went was at Kmart and it was for the games they had some really good sale don't remember what now. Anyway can remember someone stole my cart ... my lesson in never leave your cart. Walked from the back to the front of the store with about 10-15 games stacked up dropping them all the way, and saying choice words. I would go back though if they ever had a good deal again.

Cool the last few years I have noticed Longview getting bigger and bigger. Hoping it is not worse this year. I still see some of the same people but it is few and far between. My best friend wanted me to come shop with her in Dallas and I just told her she was insane .

What about a print off? You can print it onto a transfer paper and then put it on a sweatshirt or a tshirt?

CC or cash whichever I am using in my front pocket. :)

Just usually talk to whoever I go with. I live in a smaller town so it is not as long a wait as some other cities. I know every year we seem to make friends with someoen in line .

Stash the stuff in the closet and fall out. If I have enough energy we go ahead and go chop down our tree. But as I get older the energy thing is getting lower lol.

I just love BF. Especially since my DD has been my shopping partner the last two years. I really enjoy spending time with her and doing things we both enjoy doing. My favorite part is when she starts talking about how hungry she is and we go have lunch and discuss the day. :)

We have in years past usually do Best Buy first if we are going to do it at all. First part of the day until about 8 is usually planned after that we just wing it.

Your kinda close to me I did not know that lol. We live near Kilgore.

I think we get out at about 2-3 depending on how I feel... some years I just can't sit and wait at the house lol. We get home at earliest 12 but usually by around 3-4 I have to go home because I am too tired.

I went Friday and it was all still really high . I was really dissapointed looking to pick up some stuff for my best friends foster kids.

Every store I have been in looking for Halloween decorations has Christmas out at least an isle of it. Walmart still doesn't have all thier Halloween decorations out but has an isle of Christmas up. Seems like some warped logic there .

Longview, Texas :)

Pam I don't know about men's but I am sure they do. I remember buying my DS a suit in the boys section at like 50 % off ... course that has been 7 years ago. It was a really cute suit though lol.

Wow thanks for the heads up will have to head over there. I LOVE Dillards clearance!

Are you signed up for thier emails? I get coupons all the time from them in thier emails.

We have sprint and I have to agree to look on ebay. Also have you looked at the Sprint store at all? I know ours the last time I was in there had phones up to 80 % off.
