Black Friday

I refuse to go to the stores on the Friday after Thanksgiving...do any of you do that?
Some stores were even offering a 4am wake up call!!
It really reached madness near my old hometown on Long Island, shoppers trampled to death an employee of WalMart at Green Acres Mall , valley Stream,NY...where I shopped as a teen
unreal!
I never liked the crowds and the rush...I used to shop a bit all year
now I have toned it down except for the grandkids
what about you? have you changed your shopping/holiday habits this year?


HI Dutch
No way would I ever shop on Black Friday. Having a dh who worked in retail for over 30 years I know how rough this weekend can
good for you!
good plans!
I did get online Friday and ordered a few things (even for me LOL)
in fact I found some good bargains to put away for dgks birthdays...Jan,Feb and April
dil was over today to borrow suitcases
I also had t shirts for the girls.....finally got the iron transfers to work
now each will have a shirt that says "Princess........." with her name to wear in Disneyworld

oh no..she lost her cane!
do they have a lost and found there??
appalled is the right word for that deadly stampede
I grew up just a couple of miles from there
in fact , before we could drive, my friend madeline and I would take the bus there
Online shopping was enough for me
but we did hear the online traffice crashed www.sears.com!!!
ebates.com was having double rebates that day, so Iwent to stores I use anyway
hope sis gets her cane back!
hugs
