MrsHoneybee Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 No budget here either. Anything under our combined $50,000 credit card limits is game.Ummm....maybe your cc limit. I'll see about that one. And there's a chance I may have to work that entire week...or if I get the day off I'll be sleeping in.
MarkRaby Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 I will definitely be using the maximum limit of $300 in Best Buy Bucks from the McDonald's Monopoly game, as I did last year, so hopefully I can get some great stuff from Best Buy without any further hit on my wallet. -Mark-
shanni Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 I don't have a budget either, I just try no to go too crazy.....but I usually do anyway.
Angelseyes28 Posted October 3, 2005 Posted October 3, 2005 Generally no more than 2 or 3 hundred. I try my best to have cash for everything. Since finally getting my cc paid off I don't wanna have to start over lol.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 My father in law is done...mother in law...hmm...might be done... and I buy alot on clearance... cheaply. So I am thinking 100-200 depending on whats on sale... We're thinking about buying a TV for us... so I dont know...We gotta see sales...and call the bankto find out what the daily debit amount is. So we'll see.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Last year at Best Buy w/ best buy bucks that were donated to us, I bought myself a toy, The Sims Deluxe Game...that game is 30 bucks at walmart (prolly cheaper now with sims 2 with 2 expansions now) Best buy did it for 5 -5 best bucks, tax of 58 cents....ha. The best 58 cents I ever spent!
starshine Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 My Christmas Club is 520 but I usually only spend 200 or 300 of that on BF.
Princessarky Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 If I have to have a budget then I don't wanna go.....I save up for this ALL year cause I won't do the credit card thing
Steakgoddess Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 I have $250 set aside for BF, but will spend more/less depending on the ads.
Booterbunz Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 LOL Budget? What's that?? It'll depend on what's on sale!
SueInCali Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Whatever my credit card maximums are, silly! I really want a plasma or LCD TV. Probably will settle for smaller items. Probably $500 or so.
Guest Deals4Me Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 I will definitely be using the maximum limit of $300 in Best Buy Bucks from the McDonald's Monopoly game, as I did last year, so hopefully I can get some great stuff from Best Buy without any further hit on my wallet. -Mark-Careful on this one, fine print at best buy webpage, claims no more than 3-4 per dvd/cd and other limits apply on other items...
biomajor Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 I have a budget for Christmas, but not for BF--hopefully I'll see lots of stuff for people that are on my list on BF and save some money!!
scoutsangel73 Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Depends on whats for sale this year. I dont need any big ticket items.
boudmel Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 I save all year for money to spend for Dec - Xmas Shopping, decorations, entertaining but no set amount for BF.
happysunshine28 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 As much as I can get my hands on. I am taking donation.
AuntJamelle Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 I am planning on having between $500 and $600 saved up for possible spending on BF. Whether or not I spend all of that depends of course on the deals I find. Can't wait!
blakes_mommy Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 500 bucks is all i can do! Building a house sort of drains your budget!
caseyslilangel Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 $500-$1000. Really just depends on what I see.LOL
josetann Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 Just depends on the sales! I hear you on building a house; we're not building yet but are buying the land and once that's paid off, we'll start saving up to build (so money's going to be just as tight, it's surprising how expensive land is!).
elena_398 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 I have $250 in cash saved up. The rest will be paid for by my debit card from my checking account. No budget. I usually spend around $1000 or so on gifts
abram87 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 I try to budget out how much I will spend on each person, but as far as a Black Friday budget, I am not very good at sticking to those! I often find things that I didn't even see in the ads, and it messes my budget up. THe amount of money I spend also depends on when I get tired.
elena_398 Posted October 18, 2005 Posted October 18, 2005 I don't even do a budget because I always buy more than whats on my lists.
mogrill Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Last year I spent about $600.00 This year I am hoping to save about $1300.00 I am Hoping to get 2 Xbox 360's (The Deluxe set) and than have about $500 left for other Stuff. My Hubby and Brother would die for the new xbox. We shall see, I am sure they will all be gone around here... I am currently buying stuff like a mad woman to sell on ebay (I like to sell childrens books) that helps me with Black Friday as well.
