Why, oh why, did we think it was a good idea to go to the mall? I thought that by 6:00pm everyone would be done with their BF shopping and the mall would be quiet. Oh, how wrong I was. For goodness sake! This is why I do all of my shopping online! We got a really great deal on some bedding at Target (that I couldn't order online), and I bought WAY too much stuff at Bath and Body Works (that I wanted to smell before I bought).
We talked about shopping on our road trip back from PA today....but we were just beat during the drive. I'll be doing online shopping this weekend for all of our Christmas gifts:)
awick14 - I'm finally starting to feel better. When I'm laying down all day things feel pretty normal, but being out and about doesn't feel super awesome. It was a pretty quick trip because by the time we got through the line at B&BW I was ready to go lay down again. Haha.
H and I ended up at Dick's sporting goods which one would have thought may not be super crazy at 7:30 pm on BF....yea it was still a little cray.
The best part was watching these three people try to get a giant paddle board into their car. They worked on it for 30+ minutes and were still at it when we left. It didn't look like it was going well. They needed to have brought a bigger car.
I did some online shopping yesterday and did a few things in store with my mom. She slept wrong and her shoulder was hurting her really bad so we didn't get to shop for long.
We got some clothes and toys for our Angel Tree baby and mom found a few things for DH. We were only out 2 hours or so.
I am really enjoying the online shopping more. It's so much easier and I can find what I want.
We went to Lowes yesterday morning and it was empty.
DH went to Walmart last night. I was in bed when he went so I am not sure how it was. I should of went with him. He wanted to buy a new convection oven and I swear he bought the biggest one the had. The thing is huge!
I thought about running to Target but decided against it. I know when I've worked Black Friday in the past, I usually worked the later shift and it was totally dead at night, so I'm surprised it was still busy for you! I kinda want to go to the outlet mall near my parents and/or Target this weekend but I'm afraid I'll regret it, lol. We'll see!
bk1 - I'm with you on the online shopping. The only reason we even ventured out yesterday was because we weren't expecting to buy a wreath this weekend and we didn't have a hanger for the door, so we had to go get one. Haha.
I didn't go out shopping yesterday, but I did make some online purchases. I ordered a monitor for my mom because she's getting a new computer (the old one finally bit the dust), as well as a purse for my sister from the Kate Spade surprise sale.
I only ran out yesterday to go to Meijer. I didn't have enough cheese to make the GN Mac and Cheese for dinner It wasn't too bad. We also went out last night to rent movies, because while I prefered to go see Mockingjay, I've heard that theatres are packed on Black Friday. The only online shopping I did was for three books for my classroom library (and I've spent way too much buying books so far this school year, but our school library sucks and my kiddos are requesting books because they want to read) and then two dresses for me.
