leefamily23 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Pretty much every year I go BF shopping at the crack of dawn w/ my sister. Then I'm usually home by early afternoon. I then usually venture back out in the evening w/ my husband. Usually we save most of our holiday spending money up for that weekend. We are they type that would spend it if we don't use it for what it's meant for. So, we try to do a lot of our shopping that day. Anyhow, does anyone else go for 2 rounds of shopping that day???

Princess7915 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Sort of....My mom and I are crack of dawn shoppers too..When we have to unload the cars we go to her house (she lives very close to everything) and relax for a little while, then head back out. My husband wouldn't be caught dead out there!!! He hates crowds, although this year he's making some noise about going too...we shall see. I doubt he moves when the alarm goes off!!

bethc24 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 My mom and I do the same thing. We are out from the crack of dawn until about Noon, then later on we start by having a nice dinner and going out shopping as late as we can!!! Boy, it sounds crazy when you type it all out!!!

sbhiggins Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Yeah! I love Round 2, so much more relaxed than Round 1. A few years ago we hit Walmart at the crack of dawn and my dad bought a (then) big tv which was a door buster on the spur of the moment. A later that afternoon we ended up back there for some reason and they still had a ton of them, still at the door buster price, so he bought another one for his girlfriend, lol.

starshine Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I am up and out early and then I usually go back to WM after I'm done with everything else. There always seems like there is something at WM I missed or I will try to PM something that was out at another store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steakgoddess Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I shop early and all day. Not this year, since I have to be home by 1 to travel to visit some family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cami_reardon Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Yes. But this year I got an offer of OT from 3 pm - 8 pm and at that rate of pay, I might just have to forgo the afternoon/evening shopping to get the pay! :2roller: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest all2tired Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I never thought of it that way but yes I do. Then I collapse in bed and sleep until dinner time or later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchandalisha Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I will shop all day on Friday until I can't find anymore deals. Then I will come home eat and sleep. I will get up on Saturday morning and continue shopping. This is the power weekend!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkRaby Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I will shop all day on Friday until I can't find anymore deals. Then I will come home eat and sleep. I will get up on Saturday morning and continue shopping. This is the power weekend!!!Tack on Thanksgiving Day itself and you've got my usual BF weekend shopping routine. For a couple years, Sears had some deals that were only good after a certain time, so I would go back there later for those deals if they were any good. But usually, I only have one outing on Friday, but it's a several-hour outing. -Mark- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disgal Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I live in a small town, so we drive an hour to shop...going home is not an option. We (me, my mom and my husband) usually hit the doorbusters we want (we split a couple of them with my aunt and cousins...for example I am at KB at 5am and get my stuff and whatever is on their list while they are at Kohl's and do the same for me) and then, after the doorbuster shopping, we meet up with my aunt and cousins for lunch. After that we head back out to finish up shopping. We usually go to the mall last as we don't really stop to do any "non-doorbuster" shopping when we are there earlier.

Tara3117 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I live right on the NH border, so we go out at the crack of dawn and get all that tax-free shopping. And, of course, all the major stores are centrally located because it's a border town. Then I go home and take a nap for Round 2. Who doesn't love a marathon!?!
