What are your Black Friday Plans?

     With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I've been seeing many posts about Black Friday deals and shopping locally.  I love the idea of shopping locally I try to do so whenever possible to support our community, but I will not be out shopping on Black Friday. I know some people love it, but I can't handle big crowds and long lines I don't even like going to the grocery store when it's busy. I have friends who go to the store at 4am, I for one enjoy my sleep too much to be up at that time by choice, but to each their own. I have never been out shopping on Black Friday, and probably never will. My mom loves it though and all the deals out there, I know many people do.
   I will be at home with these guys, putting up our Christmas decorations because it takes all my will power not to put them up before Thanksgiving. I can't wait!

  2. me too. I want to go so bad, to see all the deals. I don't think I could handle it though. I have 2 kids, and there is no way that I could stay out all night shopping with them at home, probably crying because they want me..lol

  3. I used to be one of those crazy Black Friday people shopping at 4:00 a.m. But for the past couple of years, I haven't found anything worth losing sleep over...literally. If you watch ads and shop on-line, you'll find much better deals.

    However, this year, I'll be shopping local for Black Friday. My favorite mom-and-pop running store is having BF specials and new running shoes are on my wish list.

  5. We are going out this year, again. I went last year to walmart. I got a few things locally for our kids, but we want to get them a trampoline, and I have yet to find one on etsy. ;)

    Walmart at 10pm last year was crowded, but not like I expected; it was my first experience with BF and I wasn't disappointed. It was actually fun. So, our plan is to go this year, get the trampoline and a few other toys, some pajamas, and pyrex storage (real party animal here). I hope it's a good experience again.
    PS- we already put our tree up, at the request of our little Diva.
