kiwi2121 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 lol, I am already thinking ahead. I was just wondering about the day after xmas sales in the Usa...are they usually as crazy as the BLACK FRIDAY ones in terms of # of ppl and time waiting in line for things..thanks.

ebony0421 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 It is going to be crazy, but not as crazy as bf. You'll have last minute shoppers, people buying 50% off decorations and wrapping paper for next year and people stocking up on other bargains.

elena_398 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Walmart is nuts. I buy all the little girl makeup sets. Regularly $2.88 and $4.77. I believe day after christmas its 50% off. If you try and wait till 75%, its pretty much picked over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gporter34 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I go the day after and keep going on a regular basis to make sure I get some good things at great prices. The stores around here are pretty crowded but mostly returns and things like that. I have always gotten alot of things really cheap without too much of a crowd.

stacimarie Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I don't get to christmas shop the day after considering I am still having Christmases with family. I did have to run in wm last year and it was outrageous, almost worst than bf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 I have like 6 makeup sets I bought from last year. I got some of them at the 75% off (someone obviously hid them), but alas, I found them! I also buy my wrapping paper for the following year then and tags, bows, and christmas cards.

laffnatu Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 It's also the perfect time to pick up gifts for someone whom you didn't get to see over Christmas. I usually do this for my FIL and his wife. We don't see him on Christmas day and I save more $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Thats true. I do buy some gift sets for out of state relatives too. Just my husband's grandparents though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musiang Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I LOVE the day after!! Me and hubby have a system, he stays at the end of the aisles, and I walk thru with full arms, then we head to a scanner, and watch the savings pile up. We get alot of cousoins, friends and little kids gifts for thru the year then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leefamily23 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 We usually head out for awhile. We don't attempt any returns until the following week when the kids are back in school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkRaby Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I've been hearing that the day after Christmas won't be that great this year. They had some guy on CNN the other day saying that, since gift cards have been booming exponentially in popularity, retailers won't be marking stuff down so soon after Christmas, and that the really good "after Christmas" specials will not be until the first week or so of January, when most of the gifted gift cards have been used. -Mark- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candy Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I cant wait til the day after Christmas...I love it. I buy my perfume for the year then...usually get great deals and it last me all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
