bribri25 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I think it depends on when you consider Black "Friday" to start. JCP online on Saturday, Kohl's Sunday night, BB Elite Access Sunday night, the joke of member/cardholder early access for BB/Target, lots of online starting Tuesday night, the rest starting Wednesday night, Thursday afternoon openings, and then finally Friday.... 75%+ of advertised items were probably on sale before Friday even came.

budgetsRsexy Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Even though the big day is over it doesn’t really sink in for me until sometime in January when all the festivities are over and there’s still 3-4 months of winter left. At this point I still have more shopping and events to keep me busy to help avoid the withdrawal symptoms.

Kash Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I typed in google how many days until Nov. 23, 2018 and it says 361, the count down app says 360. So maybe one is counting both today and the 23rd and the other is not??? Either way its turning into a whole week instead of a day. Remember when there was just 6 or 7 hours of doorbusters? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I us to hate when I realized I would be in the slow lines becuase it cost me time I did not have. Now you can almost stroll and get stuff. Or, stay up late nights on the couch and click to get stuff. I got everything on my must-have list entirely online this year and didn't set foot in store. There were a few things I would have grabbed at Home Depot, Menards, and Joann, but I just didn't want to leave the house and drive 30 minutes for small stuff.

Brad Posted December 29, 2017 Author Share Posted December 29, 2017 The 2017 BF forums have been archived. As always, we'll keep this main BF forum open all year. I've kept the t-shirt contest thread, the 'countdown' thread and a few of the still-active holiday threads in here. Feel free to post any news you come across about Black Friday 2018 or retail changes in general (store closings / bankruptcies / mergers / acquisitions). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanyon71 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 My tree was turning into a fire hazard, so it went down on 1/2. I thought ours would also. I expected to come back to needles falling off all over. I was wrong, the thing is still very soft and fragrant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giz Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Well...we just had our last Christmas party Sunday! Was postponed from New Year's because I got food poisoning two days before I was to host. Then, icy conditions almost postponed it again... but we did it and everyone got here and back home safely. Thinking about having Christmas in July....maybe pizza. So, Christmas decorations and lights are coming down today. Will leave some of my snowmen up for a couple more weeks. It looks so bare.

Brad Posted January 10, 2018 Author Share Posted January 10, 2018 Um, is it me or is this thread getting smaller? Please tell me it's not just me When I archived the BF forum from last year I split the countdown thread into 2 parts and kept the pre-BF 2017 posts in another thread in the archived 2017 forum. Unless you are confusing this one for the t-shirt contest thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bopeep Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I used to start really getting in the mood for the holidays as soon as the weather started cooling off. I'd be ready for Christmas music in September. Over the last few years, it's gotten earlier and earlier. Now it's like I get in the mood as soon as the weather starts getting hot! The last few days, I've really been anxious for the Black Friday on Gottadeal forums. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abentley Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I have been trying to curb my excitement by researching toys I think will be great gifts! We have started rewards in my school for good behaviors......and I love to shop so for me it is a new sport! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
