jakesmommy403 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 With all the amazing online deals and in-store deals and coupons...I'm almost done with my shopping. I had this whole game plan of being at TRU for 10, WM after, Target at 4, Lowes at 6... Now all I need to get are the Eyeclops, Megablocks, and Bakugan at Target and the Wine Chiller at Lowes. And I'll be done. I am so excited about all the deals I got, and I've come in well under budget, but I feel like I SHOULD be out there on BF, waiting overnight for the sales to start, fighting my way to the video games... I've never been done like this before. And now here I am, on the cusp of Black Friday, and I only need a handful of things. Anyone else? Someone make me feel better about being unfaithful to Black Friday.
speeddiva Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Me too. With all the pre-sales, I'm down to just one item @ Harbor Freight on Friday & a price adjustment at Target (unless Amazon goes the same price, then it's a return _ I may go to WM @ Midnight to see what DVDs are available and try to score some of the $8 jeans but they're not gifts so no big deal if I miss them.
jakesmommy403 Posted November 23, 2010 Author Posted November 23, 2010 That's what I was thinking too...maybe I'll head up to WM just to see what's going on and what's still available. Maybe pick up a $5 Color Wonder set for my youngest. I'm glad it's not just me! Every year I'm out there with a list and a map and a game plan. This is so different for me!
amyaj Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I'm the opposite. I've been patiently waiting for Amazon to lower their toy prices and at least match some of the sales that Target has been having. I'm going to Target tonight because they have some stuff in their 4 day sale, but come on Amazon. It's time to start dropping your prices!

Only thing I have left is DH a new laptop from BB(I'm gonna order it online). I always go out on Black Friday for other people. My mom is NEVER done (hard as I try I can never light a fire under her to get her shopping done). At least she always gives me a reason to fight the crowds on BF......
IDmom262 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I agree, I just cancelled our babysitter for Friday. I was able to do 95% of my shopping on amazon. My DH wants a shopvac at home depot, and that is the only thing we (I mean he) will have to leave the house for! :)
Cinnamonhuskies Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I hope it just keeps getting better all this week
AuntieJul Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 LOL that was seriously one of the funniest titles of a thread I've seen in a long time
Jen8112 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Me too! I got most of the kids shopping done with all the toy catalog sales that have been going on the past few weeks. All I'm going out for on BF is to Sears for the washer/dryer and try to get the 19" TV online while I'm in line at Sears. It's been a few years since I've done this little on BF.
jbrawn26 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I didn't have a choice because hubby is working 2 am to noon on black friday but I got some amazing deals so other than a few things a friend is picking up for me that morning I am almost done!
Kibit13 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I have a majority of my shopping done. I really don't have to go out on BF. I am going to see if Build a Bear has any sales on their outfits and see if the Apple Store has discounts on any of the accessories DH wants for his MacBookPro or ipad, but other than that I am good. I need to order my Dad's pressure cooker off of Amazon, but that isn't on sale anywhere.
bigiweezy Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Me too! What little else I need I plan on ordering on-line.....I will venture out just to see what's going on and may pick up whatever is laft that catches my eye, though.
elena_398 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I am 99% done. Amazon.com has been very good to me. As well as this week's pre-Black Friday sales. I just need 2 video games from Walmart, towels, and a few other items and thats it.
Turner1997 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I am right there with ya! Amazon, earlier sales at Target and free shipping from American Girl have me to the point where I don't even need to go out on Black Friday! But I probably will because it is tradition and I have always done it! I am trying to get a friend to come with me that is not done shopping for her 4 kids so I have something to shop for. And the best part is that I will be spending someone else's money! :)

Someone make me feel better about being unfaithful to Black Friday. same thing here, I am almost 90% done and wrapped. I may try online for 1 item for myself, but if I don't get it , It will be ok
SuggaD Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Same here. Will be finishing up online on Thursday. I'll go into the stores solely to browse movies.
rachealb Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 wow, I feel like the only one not done this year! I usually am almost done by now, however, I have hardly even started. And I still dont even know what I am getting for some people. Ugh. And none of the BF ads so far are very exciting at all. And, Amazon has actually increased prices on the stuff in my cart, so that is definitely not helping!
Gator Pam Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Thank goodness for year-round perimeter perusing for clearance deals at Target. :)
elena_398 Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Just bought my GPS from amazon.com. I really am pretty much done. lol
AmyNay Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Target and Amazon have really been my sources this year! I haven't spent near what I thought I would!!!! While I'm excited to have everything in my hands I understand what you mean as I too feel a little sad that all I have to do is go to Target for my Dyson! I love the rush and this year I'll totally miss out on that!
