Exactly what happens when I have to get up in the morning...hoping to experience the adrenaline!

Anyone know if the Wii games they've advertised are any good? We have a Wii arriving today, so we will need to stock up on games...I figure for $10, we may as well get them, good or bad, at least the kids will have something else to play...

It depends on what you're looking for...last time I went to the outlets on BF, it was after I'd already been everyplace else that had the doorbusters, etc. Again, depends on what you're looking for...in my case, they've closed all of the Disney stores around here, but we have one in our outlet center that's been open for under a year, and they always have AWESOME bf sales, with an extra % off on their sales, and I tend to spend a lot, and save a lot, there...plus ours also had a Children's Place outlet...I like to buy ahead for my kids for the following year...but you're right, it'll also be a filler (for me, anyway), until the "big guns" open... But I'm also thinking that it'll be MUCH easier to just stay up and shop, than to try to get to sleep (which is difficult with all of the anticipation of the actual event ), and then have to GET up, and drag my butt, so that's why I'm eager to get out there early this year!! Thanks for all of the input!

Still can't get the 15% one to work, but the 10% one will if I use my Disney Visa, which of course, I can't find at the moment, since I don't carry it with me...GRRR...I'm wondering if the 15% won't work because it's considered a disneyoutlet.com item? There is nothing else in the disclaimer that I can find that would apply...

That was the other thing I was afraid of...one outlet place here has multiple exits, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue, but the other one has one exit/entrance, and is pretty much always a mess...luckily, they only have OshKosh, B&BW, and Gap there that I would go to, but I would STILL like to try to get there...but it's not worth screwing up the rest of my plans, whatever they turn out to be...

I can't get the codes to work (comcast 15, and the 10% one)...anyone else?

This will be the first year that we've stayed home, and I get to shop our local outlet centers, which will be open at midnight...I'm planning to take a nap on T-giving day, so I will be rested enough to shop there, and then continue on to my regular places like Kohl's, Target, etc., that open anywhere from 4 to 7 on BF morning...for those of you that shop starting at midnight, do you get there early to make sure you get a parking place, or if you show up at midnight, is it not all that crazy just yet? I'm just looking to find out if I need to be parked at like 11, or if I show up closer to opening time, will I be OK? When I lived in FL, I shopped on BF at the outlets there just once, and got there at like 9 a.m. (this was before the days of them being open at midnight), and it was an absolute zoo, but I got some AWESOME deals, so I'm really looking forward to the insanity! TIA!

Thanks!

That's great, but will they have any?

Awesome deals on them...we SO need a new vacuum, and we have a golden retriever who sheds like you would not believe...just wondering what the warranty is like on a refurb? Anyone?

I have to agree with this...two BFs ago, I was in line, in the freezing cold, very early in the morning, and all I wanted was the V.Smile that was advertised that came with the console and a dance pad...I got back to toys, and NO ONE knew where this was...we ended up following an associate and waiting outside of a stockroom for them to find out where they were...I was the first person to ask about them, and there were probably 20 people who rushed the associate when they brought out all maybe 7 or 8 that they had, and thankfully, an associate acknowledged that I had asked for one first, and he handed me the last one...talk about some pi$$ed off people! But, in any case, Kohl's is ALWAYS one of my first stops, because between their deals and the $10 Kohl's cash for each $50 you spend, you can't beat their deals! And RLP, so happy to have you back yet again for your "inside info!":cheesy:

They closed all of the ones in the malls around here, but we had one open in the outlet mall last year, and that one has remained open, so if you have outlets nearby, it may be worth checking out, especially since it seems the past couple of years, outlet malls have opened at midnight...I know where I'm going to be! This will be my first year out at midnight, as I'm usually in upstate NY for the holiday, with no outlets nearby, so I'm already trying to plan out when I'm going to nap on Thanksgiving day to maximize shopping potential starting that night!

Yeah, the first year they did this, the deals were awesome! They've left a lot to be desired in the years since...

Thanks for the heads-up...just ordered one, but it wouldn't allow it to be sent to the store...still better than having to stand in line and hope you can get one!:)

Oh I'd SO be on my a$$...

You're welcome!

Yes, they are interchangable...it's just that the Disney keys, at least for right now, are WM exclusives, so they are not available for purchase separately as the others like The Wiggles, Barney, Clifford, etc. are...

I know, I ordered the one on Amazon, and then checked in WM yesterday, but the Disney ones were regular price, so when I checked online and found them for $15, I bought that one, too, and I'll give the other one as a gift for a b-day next year, because the Disney one is the one I want...

That was exactly my intention, too...it's one thing if it's not the corporate policy to do that...I understand, whatever, I took my chances, and they won't PA...however, knowing that it IS their corporate policy, had they continued to say they wouldn't give my a PA, I'd have gone home and gotten everything together and returned it...my sister was picking up some of the things for me, in case they wouldn't do the PA for me when I got there, and I told her that I would've just gone from the checkout to GS with my OLD receipt in hand, and returned everything at the higher price, and gotten the stuff at the sale price anyway!

Where I lived in FL, they were just closed up one day...we had been in there like a week earlier! This was about 9 years ago, or so, so it actually surprises me that there are any of them left!

I got these for my boys (one it getting his for Christmas, as he just turned 2 in Sept, and the other got his for Easter), and my oldest loves it! We have his Wiggles CDs on it, so we don't have to listen to them as a family on long trips! I got theirs on clearance at Target months ago, for about $25.xx! And I got a pink one for a niece for Christmas for $12.xx!
