  1. I agree on Walmart. It seems like people are not buying and most of the black friday event items were still available as of Sunday morning. I was there for other things, but picked up a couple of movies. Those movies would have been long gone in years past.. Not much in the ad that was of interest to me. The store was a normal Sunday morning crowd, but people were doing regular weekly shopping.

     

    I am torn whether it is shopper behavior or people just don't have the money to spend right now.

  2. Black Friday was trending toward earlier and earlier deals with a heavier online presence, but I think COVID accelerated that timeline significantly.

     

    I think the physical BF tradition of waiting in line and being out all night/day shopping is gone.

     

    Your thoughts?

  3. Hi,

     

    I have a 10 year old who wants an electric scooter for Christmas. He has a razor, but he has outgrown it, tall kid. Does anyone have any suggestions for a safe option? Also would need to accommodate a taller kid.

     

    I see razor makes some, but really don't know much about them. If someone could offer their experiences or any insight it would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Thanks!

  4. Black Friday 2017 Reflections

     

    Best Buy and Kohls had the BEST ads in my opinion.

     

    People were chasing the $20 air fryer at JCPenney like a Cabbage Patch in the 80s. (About 400+ people lined up at store open) Congrats to those who got one.

     

    I did most shopping online and came out for a little to use the $10 coupon at Kohls. Found the egg cooker that sold out online tossed to the side and discarded by an unwanting customer. WINNING!

     

    Also, went to Home Depot for the $1 Poinsettia....I thought I never would say this, but Home Depot should put a limit on how many you can buy. Those folks with two cart fulls were excessive and who needs all those plants anyway?

     

    Checked off just about everyone on my list with a few odds and ends left to get.

     

    Interestingly enough, I went to Best Buy and Target late afternoon today to find both stores had a significant amount of doorbusters left. Best Buy still had SNES Classics (about 20) in a bin at the front of the store. Either most shopped online or people were not spending as much this year. I can't wait to hear the shopping statistics on the news.

     

    And BTW, I do agree that Amazon was underwhelming this year.

     

    Until next year...

  5. Has anyone noticed that their Target does not have the daily toy on the shelf, but in the stock room? This happened to me twice at two different locations and two different stores. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this.
