First, a comment about the poinsettias: 

Yep, saw several people with two cart loads at my HD. I think I was the only one not buying a single one. (I have cats that are plant chewers. They are toxic to cats = they are nowhere in my home.) 

 

Now then... 

 

Started by shopping Kohl's online Sunday night so I got both $15/50 KC and 20% off: 

3 - The Big One throws

4 - The Big One pillows

1 - Bissell carpet cleaner bundle (not specifically a BF deal, but still on sale + discounts = great price)

All my online shopping went great, some have already been picked up or delivered. No trouble with websites. I shopped Kohls, TRU, Target, Amazon, Macys, NAvy Exchange, Walmart and Sears online. 

 

The lines were not bad at the brick and mortar stores either, they were long but moved quickly. Again I got everything on my list

 

Two favorite Black Friday memories DD found the golden hanger at Steinmart and won a $500 store gift card and at JC Pennys I asked if I had any rewards and found out I had $30 worth of rewards with my $10 off $10 coupon I ended up paying $.32 for my purchase.
