Black Friday



Well I did it. I got up at 4 am with my sister to do the Black Friday shopping. I haven't done it in YEARS and my sister and I had a plan. It turned out well. There was only one time that we were outside for more then 15 min. (We were outside for 2.5 hrs) YIKES. THAT was an experience. We were waiting to go in for a bargain deal for an IPOD. We sure did get it, and I think it must have been worth it for the person receiving the gift will absolutely know how long we waited for it. :) All in all it was a great time. No one where we were got maimed...although it was getting close towards the end of it all.


The lines were long...amazingly long for a store that didn't open until 8, there were people there before 5 am (so that is what they said.) And were werent too far behind them. But the line kept growing..the Ipod was a FANTASTIC deal.

I got all of my families gifts so now I don't have to bring them with me when I come home for Christmas. Yay! However I don't know that I will do it again. I think I got like 3 hrs of sleep the night before, and when you are visiting family there isn't a lot of time for a nap.

A brave sole you are. I was at Target for only 15 minutes and I wanted to choke someone before I left. I get easily ticked-off in large crowds of generally rude people...that means no Black Friday for me. =) Reese got up at 1:30am to go shopping with my sisters and they didn't get home time after 5pm.

Glad you had fun.
