  1. I do lights but I also have three inflatables, one globe, two trees, and a bunch of other stuff, last year I added an arch way, not sure what I will add this year, My neighbor and I joke she does Halloween and I take care of both houses at Christmas as I have to put some on the edge between both our yards, I will try this year to take pictures,
  2. You need to remember that not all areas will have the same door busters or blitz Items. While my excitement over the ads was unspeakable, My disapointment was even greater. BB in my area did not have the 149.00 computers or the laptops. MY Walmart Lap top was cheaper then others but more then others. We must all remember that each region has it's own ads, and that OHio I think it's Ohio has no doorbusters at all, I remember reading posts last year about that. But I can not wait for this years ads as they will help me get going and in the mood as I love to BF shop evern if it's just for the little things
  3. Ours stay open, they change where they put things every year, One year Everyting was in Lawn and garden, it was nice because you could put blitz things in your cart but couldnt leave lawn and garden till 5:00am. That only lasted one year as people didnt think that was fair. Last year I was 9th in line for a lap top and I got there at 1:30 Am, Grabbed a chair and there I sat with the others in sporting goods. while my kids grabbed the blitz items at 5:00am, What I cant stand is the people who wonder up at 5:00am and try to get in the front of the line to get ahead of those who have waited so long
