BF forum renamed to "Holidays & Holiday Shopping"
Illinoismom replied to EliteABombAZ's topic in 2005
Ross and Brad wild horses couldnt drag me away, I enjoyed this forum way too much and feel I made some friends, I am more then willing to help to spread the word about the site to help make it even bigger next year. -
I still love my HP lappy from walmart well worth getting there at 1:30 Am to be in line to get one, Nothing is a better feeling then getting everything you went to the stores for and then being home by 12:30 and even stopping half way through to have breakfest. The thrill of Black Friday and the thrill of telling all the late comers to head to the end of the line, Which was long.

I know that there was an off duty walmart employee in line for the lap tops and another daughters was in line ahead of me,When the other employee got off work she then joined us in line, I have no problem with this at all as they are entitled to get on the door busters as the rest of us. I know I was in line since 1:30 Am and the lady and the others daughter was there before me. Walmart employees can only shop when off the clock if not they have some one else shop for them, Nothing wrong with that at all. The also have families and should get the same pricing as us, and wait in lines just like us and at My walmart they did just that
-
we got the three thingson my list and they wouldnt let line crashers through they mad every one who got there at opening to wait till the line went through Awsome they were

Well you may think it's crappy, But I think it's great, Our BB didn't offer the Toshiba, and I really wanted a lap top, So I stood in line from 1:30 am in Walmart to be sure I got one, I couldnt be any more happier with a Lap top for under 400.00 that I could afford.

You knowI have a friend who was looking for 4 X boxes and if she could have she would have bought them for her 4 children, Hell I have for children, and sometimes I buy four of the same things for them. I use layaway to pay things off for Christmas as sometimes I do not have the money at that time to buy it all. I was in line at 1:30 am for a lap top and my daughter was in line for the portable DVD players, I guess she got dirty looks when she walked away with 7 of them, and people really must have assumed she hording them, little did they know she had one for me one for my Mother in law who was at Jewlery and 5 for people who were waiting in the lap top line so they wouldnt miss out on that great blitz line.

35-40 not sure, I was there at 1:30 Am people who came at 4:30-4:45 couldnt understand why there was a line and no one was letting any one through, I was number 9

I mapped out my game plane and put the family to work with the two little ones at the nieghbors, I went to bed at 9:00pm Hubby set the alarm for me for 1:00 Am got up got dressed got coffee and my Daughter and her Friend for out trek to Walmart. Hubby was to follow at 4:30 am to be in line at Menards and my son at Target. I got the 378.00 Laptop and case, 2 Portable DVD player and case, 3 20" gold chains, CP Baby, flash drives and many movies and box sets that were Pm at walmart. Then went to Target to save my Son who is 15 and never has done a BF and I wanted 2 Kodak Camara's What a made house and glad I went to help him, Target was a mad house never knew a 46 year old could do the 100 yard dash like I did, they pushed through the doors and started running. Had he had not been there for 1.5 hours I would have said scew it. But we got them and out the door we went. At menards Hubby got the GSP and the auto quick pack and a soccer Bean bag, The we went to Kohls but had nothing there, Gordmans, then K-mart for some odd and ends and then back to walmart where we got a 23 inch Tv for 88.00, so jeand and boys PJ bottoms

Anyone else's local media discouraging shopping WM this season?
Illinoismom replied to Candy's topic in 2005
In the business I am in, for years we have had to say Happy Holiday's we can not say Merry Christmas, We live in a diverse world and not every one believes the same, It is the Holiday season, as we have Christmas, Hannikca ( sorry Spelling) Ramadan, quanzza (again bad spelling) and so many other holiday's that to debate whether to say Merry Christmas or Happy Holiday's is really dumb. And Yes I celebrate Christmas
