SweetCanela Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 ugh .. you have to buy a card and keep up with it. After 4 trips to CVS, you'll get your money back via an ECB .. but I have so many dang cards now!It isn't a card you keep in your wallet it is a tag and your wrap it around the handle of your reusable bag. I have a green one so I put the green tag on there and will designate that as my CVS bag. I'm up to three already so this week I will be getting my extracare buck!
elicia423126 Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 I'm much more impressed with Meijer's ad compared to Toys R Us and Target.
dd50 Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Do they have any BF sales? I don't remember receiving anything last year but I remember seeing stuff for another wholesale place.Yes, last year they did. I didn't know it and just happened to go.
dustysky Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 This is a new store in our area, any idea what BF is like here?
dirtmcgirt79 Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 This ad is terrible this year.. They should have stepped it up, because most of these prices are very close to their everyday prices.. I'm going to have to skip Gander this year..
hopeky94 Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Anyone ever shop their "online specials" during BF? There's not a B&M store near me, so I'm wondering how much of what's in their ad is typically also that price online?Does anyone know the answer to this? TIA!!

my4bearcubs Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I'm much more impressed with Meijer's ad compared to Toys R Us and Target.I am with you there!! Meijer's toy ad is fantastic. I really think both TRU and now Target stink with their Toybooks this year. Bummer!
Gporter34 Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 We have a Hasting's and I usually end up going there every year. However, I have noticed that they don't have many of the "doorbusters" at our store. Not sure about others, but one year they had Razor scooters and our store only got two of them. But, we do live in a small town. That could have something to do with it, lol. I go there for movies, games, and game accessories on BF.
BridgeIU Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 In Indy, they usually don't have 'doorbusters'. Their deals are good all day.
bugsette Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 I think they do... we have bought a few appliances from them ....(but not on Black Friday)
penor Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 We have a new one in the Cincinnati area and we're thinking about heading out for the midnight opening. Was wondering how good the deals are and if it's worth the trip because while it's in the area it's still a bit of a haul to go there.
Brad Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 Craft Warehouse sent their ad over. They only have stores in a couple states (mostly pacific NW), so we're not going to type up the entire ad, but you can download the scan here: http://www.blackfridayvip.com/scans/GottaDeal-CraftWarehouse.pdf
santaclaus Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 I would like to go to that mall but I don't know if it would be a good thing or not. Really, I replied just to let you know that there is a lot of construction going on in that part of of I75 and there has been a lot of accidents in the area. They even reduced the speed limit in the area because of so many fatalities. I think I would rather go there in the day time if I wasn't familiar with the area.
BF in Iowa Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 The Tanger mall near us opens at midnight (that's just a minute after Thanksgiving truly ends). My teen daughter went with family friend's last year. She liked that everything at Aeropostale was 1/2 price but said the lines, crowds and craziness wasn't worth it (but, she's never gone with me/Santa at 4 am to stand outside cold, snowy Target, either). She bought just one shirt at Aeropostale. Nothing else! (Yes, she'll have to learn more about shopping for maximum benefit!)
cincygurl Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 I was there for the grand opening, and it was packed. Traffic just crawled. When I went to the outlet in Jeffersonville a few years ago, it was crazy.
msl94 Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 Honestly, it really depends on what stores are in the outlet center. Last year, my wife and I shopped at the Jersey Shore Premium Outlets only because of the Yankee Candle store who had a 6 large candles for $60 sale at midnight. Although some of the other stores like Tommy Hilfiger, Gap, and Aeropostale had between 40%-50%, there really wasn't much that struck our fancy. The longest line at that center at midnight last year was at the UGG outlet.
mcwalker Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 JC Penney is my favorite department store at this point (used to be Sterns), but I don't recall being in one on BF. Probably will this year at some time during the day, though, due to location. What is the snow globe deal they were doing? My wife likes snow globes in general (unless they break).
marshmallowpuff Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 Thank You! All of the my crafting friends online will be very grateful!
bigjimslade Posted November 5, 2009 Posted November 5, 2009 You are welcome and send them to Gottadeal.com! Thank You! All of the my crafting friends online will be very grateful!

My wife likes snow globes in general (unless they break).Our family has gotten MANY of the snowglobes and not a single one has ever broken. They've always been a different disney character. They come ready gift packed in a little red box (packed in styrofoam)with a gold or silver elastic band made into a bow and a coupon attached to the outside. They are small but very cute and over the years we've built up a collection. If we have any spare they're given to my cousin as a gift along with some little thing. Not sure how long they last at stores though, I'd say possibly not longer than the first hour if even that?

I'm thinking of going this year.
momof3luvs1 Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I go every year. I have gone to the ny long island outlets, the nj outlets, and now I go to the ellenton Fl outlets. They are packed from like 10pm-2am..but after that it is actually pretty calm and have GREAT deals! I usually shop there first then hit the other stores after!
braylan1 Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Never been, I think the closest one to me is in Destin maybe?? Would love to go to Yankee Candle though!!! I YC! :)
arci122 Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Last year JCpenney opened at 4am, we got our snow globes at 5:30
braylan1 Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I love getting the snowglobes, I collect them. :)
Katie811 Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I worked at jcpenney for 3 years, by the sounds of it they will have them again (it's a tradition!!) They go pretty fast! Depending on the year, one year they lasted my 6 hour shift! and then another year they were gone within 2 hours! I think they are cute - but nothing I would go crazy over like some people:razz:
Brad Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 The Ace ad should be posted by this time on Monday :)
