Black Friday anyone?!!!!!
 
yes, Im one of those crazies who shops on Black Friday!!! Im leaving a 11pm for the midnight opening! Macys, Old Navy, Shoe Station! Nothing says holidays like fighting for Christmas gifts!!! Actually most people are very nice and are in the spirit of shopping!!!!

Ugh!! You have all my respect, Maezy, if you're willing to brave the crowds with a good attitude. That's actually my idea of **** :). I AM going to my favorite shop for Small Business Saturday, though, and I'm a champ at Cyber Monday . . . . although I actually have nearly all my Christmas shopping done already this year!

I'll be thinking of you and wishing you well - while I'm out in the woods with my dogs, walking along the river and listening to the birds :)

I've been online shopping today- much more relaxed than the stores, and still lots of good deals!

I'm pretty much done with my shopping... I dread the idea of going in a store between Thanksgiving and Christmas. A few things left to get for the grand kids, but it can all be done online.

The only store I'll be visiting before Christmas is the grocery store! :)

Got home around 3am! was a great experience for those of us who love the rush! (literally) Back out today after physical therapy

i went. saw the lines. left
lol actually i stayed and went to a few stores, but once i got to jc penny and saw the lines wrapping around, I didn't even want to bother looking
i'll be doing my shopping online

besides, shopping isn't fun for me anymore when i'm limited to the tiny selections of plus size clothing

Hope you had fun Maezy1! I have been watching the ads and am missing the excitement...last year I went for a girlfriend/daughter's getaway (9 hours drive first) to shop till we dropped! (I had to tell the hotel staff as we wheeled in our deals on the hotel trolleys that we were stimulating the US economy! lol they thought we were too funny) sigh, maybe next year! HAPPY SHOPPING, may you find the BEST deals. :)

I don't like battling lines, makes me too anxious!

I prefer shopping online in my underwear....which I am doing right now! I did clothes at Old Navy, JCPenney, and electronics at Walmart. I think I'm pretty much done except for a few odds and ends and some handmade gifts.

ugh ! I wouldn't go out today if you paid me. My holiday shopping is done. I finished in October.

The walmart.ca website is apparently getting such heavy usage today for their Black Friday Sale that the server is down temporarily. I'm not enough of a shopper to ever go amongst the crowds I hear about re Black Friday, but was curious enough to see what was on offer at walmart today. Couldn't bring the site up due to heavy traffic.

Hi my name is Maezy and I am a true shopaholic! Well, not that bad but I just love the Black Friday. When I got to Old Navy there was an hour wait to check out! Skipped that and went online and didn't wait at all! I have a 20 yr old son who refuses to stop growing! Made him come with me to try on stuff so that I bought the right sizes. He likes the black Friday rush too!

Well, I guess it depends on how MUCH you paid me but I'm pretty comfy in my house! I'm not a shopper on ANY day, let alone when the stores are crowded, parking lots are jammed, and people are filled with holiday non-cheer.

I'm not usually much of a shopper, but I did manage to snag a NordicTrack treadmill for a really good deal at 4am. Silly winter's got nothing on me! :D

My sister and I hit the stores at 10 last night. We looked at it like a fun workout after dinner. We were not really searching for anything in particular, but it was fun to socialize with people we haven't seen in a long time.

YES! someone else who understands the full shopping experience! It can be fun but not for everyone
