One of the toys we are getting DD for Christmas ('lil quad) is 50% off at Toys R Us. But it's a door buster deal and starts at 5pm on Thursday. I am NOT shopping on Thanksgiving. DH's family is all weird and eats at noon so we will most likely be on the road home (1 1/2 hours) then anyway. DH thinks we should just swing by on our way and see if any are left. But I hate that then we are those people shopping on Thanksgiving. Then again, paying $50 is better than $100! Maybe I'll go out at 12am and hope one is left and feel better about myself that I waited until Friday to buy it.
There is no way in hell I would go to TRU on Thanksgiving or Black Friday. My SIL went last year, and as soon as she got inside she realized it was a mistake (crazies everywhere shoving each other for toys) and had to get out. It took her over an hour just to LEAVE THE STORE.
I would gladly pay $20 more just to avoid that madness.
