pmdemey Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 I think this year I will take some munchies for the car rides just to save time in drive thrus!
CrayZMama80 Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 Me personally, I'm on a mission and I don't eat or drink anything till I'm done! And without my coffee.. I normally look like this>> by the time I'm done!
pmdemey Posted November 4, 2006 Author Posted November 4, 2006 I think and move faster with coffee and a bagel
Adamtanderson Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 I think and move faster with coffee and a bagelI would avoid the coffee if you are waiting in line. Liquids are bad enough but caffeine increases urine production.
peachysquirt21 Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 I dont take nothing with me. Too hyped up to get the bargains to eat anything. LOL
stationchief Posted November 4, 2006 Posted November 4, 2006 A starving person will be much more able to bust through lines and dive for their wanted items. It's a scientific fact. Eat/drink afterwards.

sm1kla Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 I always take nutrition bars - they are delicious and nutritious - I recommend GNC Pro Performance Pro Crunch Lite bars or EAS MyoPlex bars -- they also help with a chocolate fix.
Christy Garner Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 I try not to drink anything but maybe sip on a bottle of water because then I will have to go to the restroom and by myself, I am not getting out of line.
elena_398 Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 I don't eat or drink anything till Im done shopping. I usually go through a drive thru to get a coffee on the way home. I eat when Im home too
Christi Posted November 5, 2006 Posted November 5, 2006 We usually hit breakfast after we've gotten all of our really wanted items out of the way. Then we can hit the stores that aren't such a big deal. Last year we had a few munchies for the hours in line.
kselzer Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 I usually have a granola bar in case I get to be just starving. NO liquids - gotta stand in line by myself
amyers12345 Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 I've never had a problem w/ eating or drinking on bf.. but we stood in line for 20 minutes yesterday at TG for Elmo... I had half a cup of coffee and thought I would explode... good thing I learned my lesson so early!
able Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 op you said drive thru vs snac thin snac is a great idea.. not coffee though
jlr1996 Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Last year I slept out at Best Buy so yes eating something is always good at midnight, Thanksgiving fullness is gone. Munchies... Then I don't eat until lunch.
migirlfriday Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 I was thinking about taking some hot chocolate in a carafe to sip on once in a while. I will bring a few snacks since I am planning on being there all night.
motoXmom Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 With my Blood Sugar I have to take something to eat. Tha last thing I need is to passout before they open the door or in line. Cuz lord knows ain't nobody pickin' me up! ROFL The only think people would probably pick up is whatever I have in my cart.
g-man430 Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 Where are my doughnuts? Mmmm...doughnuts, mmmm...doughnuts.

cleverbffool Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 I stop at SBucks then get in line, after I go get breakfast somewhere.
mich10301 Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 No coffee for me this year - went through Tim Hortons drive thru last BF and was rear ended! Luckily did more damage to their car than mine because I didn't want to waste time waiting for police. I had a line to be waiting in hehe!
elendae Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 Last year our WalMart was handing out sodas and oatmeal bars at the door, and doughnuts and coffee inside. :) Didn't need to stop until lunch time! :)
dmmiller Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 No Coffee for me -AT ALL. I paid that price dearly when I stood in line last week at TRU, and mistakenly had 3 cups of coffee. (thought I was gonna burst) By the times the doors opened up, I did a B-line to the Bathroom. DH had to take care of the Preorder. lol
diecastbeatdown Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 i'm out the door, no breakfast. i'll take a water and some granola snacks. never had an issue with needing to go, ake care of that and eating after the first major store is out of the way and done.
