jennie_bebe Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 So, now that most of the "big" ads are out... Where are you going? When will you get there? What are you going for? 1 more week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wx4svr Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I am going to do BF from the Web this year. EXCEPT,I will be at WalMart early (4AM-ish) to get a non-BF 32" Plasma TV that I have a feeling will sell out even if its not on the "hot deals" list.

jennie_bebe Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 I'm going to start at Kohls, and DH will go to HD. I'll get to Kohls around 3am-and he'll get to HD around 6:30am-ish. I don't have my final list put together at Kohls, but no big ticket items...just the small things. DH is going to get the Gorilla ladder and PA our compresser at HD. It is going to be a low-key BF for us this year, but I can't complain...we already got our plasma from the CC price "mistake" last weekend! I guess we will just have a goo nights sleep and a relaxing and warm Thanksgiving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsa Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 It all depends on the MENARD'S ad. Where is that ad???? GRRR As of now, I have gotten the one thing I really wanted off of amazon 2 days ago. The spy remote control car. Sam's had it for $79 and I got it for $59. Thank you Gottadeal:D So, this BF is all about the socialization not the deals. I will not be buying as much but I can't stand being away from the fun. I know I need to go to some step program for this but it is sooo worth it. Can't wait for the real sales to start after BF. That is sad isn't it.

mysticmage Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I'll be at Best Buy for the 19" Samsung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetdiggity Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 My plan is finally in place! I'll be at Walmart shortly before it opens at 5am. I'm going to grab some $16 Wii games, jeans, hoodies, a jacket, a few toys, some $2 DVDs, and then kill some time just looking at holiday stuff until a little before 6am. I'm going to check out, and go across the parking lot to Target just in time for its opening. At Target, I'm getting some Nintendo DS games and a few Star Wars Monopoly games. Then I'm heading straight to Kmart to check out the B2G1 Lego sets and Star Wars toys that will be B1 G1 %50 off. I may or may not go to Best Buy for the $9 Virgin Mobile phone. Then I'll go home, eat leftovers, take a nap, and maybe shop online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgm520 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I think the Walmart ad sealed the deal for me.... I'll be there as soon as my body and cups of coffee will allow - probably between 3:30 and 4 am - for the Leapsters (hoping to get 2 of them).

KBsDarling Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Price match everything I can at WM and then depending on what store has the most stuff left that i couldnt PM go there next and so on down the list like usual I am not after tvs game systems or pc/laps so this typical works fairly well...there will be some things I dont get but for most part i knock into it fairly well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julz0420 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Wal Mart, Sears, Ace Hardware, then home. Probably after dh gets home we'll head back out, shop a little bit everywhere but thats about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arci122 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Kohls, Sears and Lowes are MUST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberjobryant Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 as much as I hate to admit it, walmart for me, then radio shack and a couple other local stores, at least I don't have to leave town this year :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
childofsolitude Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I won't know my final plan until Thanksgiving because the other people shopping with me have yet to see the ads. We'll probably hit the mall where JC Penney, Best Buy, and a few other stores are located. Then we'll go across the street to Target and Circuit City. From there, who knows. I'm not too impressed with the deals this year. The only thing I'm really looking to get is the Aiptek camcorder at Target. Other than that, I'm just going out for the fun of it.

MollyTrolly Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Disney Store at midnight, couple hours sleep then WalMart!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jade6700 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I'll do my Best Buy online BF shopping Wed night Kohl's online Thursday night Sports Authority will probably be the first store I go to followed by Bath and Body Works Also our shopping center is giving away gift cards again this year to the first 1000. Last year I got $25 so I may do that again. All plans are subject to change at my whim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gporter34 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 WalMart, JCPenney(for the snowglobe), Bath&Body Works, Radio Shack, and Hasting's. Then go and eat, go home, wrap gifts, CRASH until I wake up. After that, I will probably sit around and watch Christmas movies and look at the lights on my tree(that's been up for two weeks now, and eat leftovers.

mom2maddynsky27 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 (edited) not for sure yet but it looks like walmart and then sears, followed by a few others to see what's left.

jakesmommy403 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 My mom and I have our final plans in place!!! We will be at Toys R Us for 5 a.m. to pick up some little odds and ends like board games and legos, then it's on to Target for 6 a.m. for the major shopping!! After Target we'll head across the parking lot to Kohls just to check out some little things, and after that it's breakfast at Bob Evans and coffee!! If we have time after that (I have to be home by noon so DH can go to work, no babysitter for the kiddo that day) we'll pop into a few other stores just to check out the deals. We have a new Outlet mall right by my house, and you will not catch me anywhere NEAR that place on BF! I'm pregnant and don't want to get trampled!! lol!

singledad Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Wal Mart for me first (Leapster, Samsung Blu-Ray Player, 2 of the 8" Digital Photo Frames, that Samsung Digital Camera for my mom), then off to Target (XBOX 360 with the $60 Gift Card, my existing XBOX 360 crapped out on me..., then use that gift card on some toys!), and then it is to meet with my mom at Kohl's to get some clothes and even more toys for the kids. An exciting day to be had! My first year in 7 or 8 in which I don't go to Best Buy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybrooke Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Im thinking that I might start off at Walmart... then head over to Meijer, go to a different walmart to see if i can pick up anything I missed at the first one, then maybe over to sears, then another meijer to pick up anything that I missed at the first meijer.... LOL, yes 2 Walmarts and 2 Meijers... I usually go to target, but I dont remember seeing anything super exciting in that ad, so I might skip target and TRU for the first time this year.... then I think that I might meet up with the family and we will go to a 3rd walmart and then head off to Kmart. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakesmommy403 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 I see with some of us it's the first year we're skipping certain stores. This will be the first BF that I don't go to Walmart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happysunshine28 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hopefully I will be able to get TV online at walmart so I dont have to try to beat the crowd to get one. Then I am going out to sport my BF tee, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floridasun5 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 STILL waiting on Apple to decide what they are going to do for BF and whether its worth it to spend hours in line. If they put on a decent sale, I'll be there bright and early. Some other stops are Lowes for 2 things that I personally want, Best Buy for some games and a tv mount and the mall for some small things. Otherwise, most of my other Christmas shopping is done, or will be done this weekend :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General MarioXx Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 will be at best but from weds night. then walmart for a few deals afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkster65 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 I am actually still waiting on a coule palces (HH Gregg fo non-doorbusters and the Brandsmart). But right now I am leaning towards mainly Home Depot, Ace, Target and probably Sports Authority (would be my 1st stop). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewilfords Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 I've done a ton of my toy shopping already. My plans are for Disney Store, Old Navy, Gymboree, Bath and Body Works, and then I'll swing by Walmart to see what's left. Walmart has a great ad, but the only real thing I was thinking of getting was the pjs and slippers for the kids, and the pjs have bad reviews on one of the boards, so I might not make them a priority.

singledad Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hmm I actually forgot that I am still waiting for a few ads for regional specific stores, like Nebraska Furniture Mart. Also waiting for the Microcenter ad. But so far, it's Walmart first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorilwayne Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 My plan- well.... I had contemplated going to JCPenny's since they open at 4am just to get my BF fix-if there was something I was after but really there isn't. However after the Walmart ad came out I'm debating about possibly going there around 4am to get near the item I'm after then running to the checkout line and then driving the 40-45 minutes to work to be there by 6 am. Haven't decided for sure yet what I'm thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtolli Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Have done most of my shopping already. The biggest things left I want to buy is a 19 - 23" LCD TV, a 4-in-1 printer, and maybe a digital picture frame. Hopefully I can pick up a TV in an on-line sale, and I know I can get a decent deal on-line now on a printer. So I am debating going anywhere at all. If we go, it will be around 5 or 6 to either Circuit City, Wal Mart, Staples or Radio shack, or perhaps a combination of those places. Definately not camping in the cold this year.

queenofshopping Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Darn Wal-Mart just had to come along & be good, so I had to revise my plans...outlets at midnight, WM at opening, then Target, Old Navy, & Michaels...oh, & maybe Toys R Us at some point. Problem is when I'll be able to get any online stuff...wonder if I can get Wi-Fi standing outside anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
