Do you shop the day after Thanksgiving?

The day after Thanksgiving is typically the start of the holiday buying season and stores go nuts with sales - and with people!  Do you brave the crowds to get a deal?  What's the best deal you've gotten at a sale?  If you work in retail, have you ever worked "Black Friday"?

Yeah, I suppose it would depend on how crowd-paranoid a person was.

I live in a small town and I choose to wait until a week or so
before the holidays to go shopping.
I don't let the merchants sell me on the idea that eternal shopping for
the holidays is what makes Christmas a happy holiday.

the last time i did that was a few years ago with a friend. we did it mostly for the laughs! i hate crowded malls but it was fun and interesting! i don't have much shopping to do anymore now that the boys are grown.

the thing that gets me is WHY on earth would someone bring little kids christmas shopping with them. the kids scream for the toys and makes shopping unpleasant for everyone around.
