julz0420 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 My mom comes with me. Every year. I do not bring dh. After the day after Christmas sale in target with dh, it became clear he isn't right for this type of shopping! Haha 1
mcwalker Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Sometimes my nephew. Last year my sister came for part of the time, then I went back out alone. This year, I expect to be alone, as I have been some other years. 1
MOMPRO76 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I go every year with my two best friends! Its our tradition and before the end of the day will hit about four different Walmarts on top of all other major stores if we have to! 2
arci122 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 My Mom, and sometimes a friend. We need reinforcements to divide and conquer....... 1
cln06 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I go out alone. No one I know wants any part of the madness. They all think I'm crazy. Lol. DD12 wants to go but I think she is too young still. Told her a few more years and she should be able to handle it. 2
Elmck Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 We are a big group but we do not stay together. Sometimes we meet up at different stores but its not a must. We do help each other by getting items a different stores Before we leave my moms house we exchange list and money For example if I am going to Target and my family member needs just a couple of things from the ad I will try to get them. So who goes with me my mom and dad DD26, her DH, My oldest DS, My youngest DS and his DW. My DD11 started 2 years ago and loves it. My aunt if she is in town. 1
mhschreiner Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I will be alone this year. My oldest daughter usually goes with me but she is working retail this year so we are all assuming she will have to work. 1
ytmomof4 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Normally it's me,my mil, and my ds20.last year we just hit up Walmart as I got hurt and really should not have been out.This year it might just be me. My mil didn't really want to go last year but took me since I couldn't drive.I am hoping that my ds has a job by then and can't go but if not he will definatly go with me. 1
willandmel Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Usually it's me, my two sisters and my brother. But this year my youngest step daughter said she might tag along. 1
smurfgirl Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I used to go with my mom until we moved away. Now I usually meet up with a friend. 1
shopping4my3son Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Usually it's just me. My oldest ds came with twice. My husband came with once. My husband thought all of it was crazy. My son thought I was crazy. lol 1
love2behappy Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 My husband tags along with me. . .mainly for protection because he thinks its all madness and he doesn't want me out by myself. 2
julz0420 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 I go out alone. No one I know wants any part of the madness. They all think I'm crazy. Lol. DD12 wants to go but I think she is too young still. Told her a few more years and she should be able to handle it.My 10.5 yr old wants to come also. I could take her to Walgreens and Walmart in my small town this yr but then she will have to go home. It gets crazy in the next towns over lolI will be alone this year. My oldest daughter usually goes with me but she is working retail this year so we are all assuming she will have to work. Maybe you'll get lucky and she won't have to work til later on Friday. Then she can shop with you for a bit
nini Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I always spend Black Friday shopping with my mom. We've tried bringing others with us, but they just slow us down. 1
Kanyon71 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 In the past it's been my wife, my mil and myself. This year since we are in another state it will be my wife and myself, MAYBE my sister and her husband. 1
momlori Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Sometimes alone and sometimes with a friend. With the hours this year I may not be going 1
Bopeep Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 It's always me and my sister. A couple years ago, my daughter in law started going with us and I think that will continue. Both of my boys have gone once, and both of them said "never again!" LOL I think my niece (15) wants to go with us this year. 1
jesusluvu Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 It is usually my brother and I. Sometimes we will shop together or go to different stores and buy each others items from that store then meet up later to finish up the day. 1
berry1014 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Depends .. Sometime I start off alone, other times I start with extented family family but always finish shopping with DH. 1
chelamarc Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Our group consists of my mom, my three sisters, my SIL and some helpers, which are usually the older nephews/nieces. We take an Avalanche, suburban and a small car...and can fit everything we buy without a problem. Then we hit the stores "Military style"! 1
Thumper501 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I've went solo for a few years, then my sister came along for a long time. My husband number 2 went with me one year. The last two years I have been running solo. 1
magickallight Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 It used to be my mom, my girls and myself, but now I do my shopping online and let THEM fight the crowds. 1
LCPanther1975 Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I have a clan! There are about 14-15 of us that go (cousins, SILs, etc) and we always use the divide and conquer method. Its always so fun!!! 1
starbeck96 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 For about 10-11 years I went with my best friend. Unfortunately things happened and we aren't very close anymore. The past 2 years I went with my cousins wives. This year, I am planning on going with a friend from church. Her husband has to work this year and won't get to go with her, so I asked her if she'd like to go with me. 1
tracy0504 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I used to go with family...the past few years I've gone out alone and end up meeting a few friends from church...this year my 14 yr old 6' tall son wants to go...hmmmm height, strength, speed, agility,protection walking through dark parking lots ...absolutely!!!! 2
NovemberDiva Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I usually fly solo!! I've tried to take other people with me but the slow me down and don't get as excited as I do!! IT'S A BLACK FRIDAY THANG, THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND!! 4
diana03 Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I will either go by myself and sometimes my sister will come along with me.
Peppermint Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 My friend and I go out in the morning and usually out for round 2 after lunch with DH.
