I love sleeping.

No. But we are shopping tomorrow at about 10. We are going to see what deals are left but shouldn't have to fight the crazy crowds. It is crowded then but the people are a bit more polite.

I ordered several delta Cassidy items as well! Unfortunately almost all my bathroom Cassidy items are back ordered but I've got plenty of time since our slab was just poured today. I contacted them today to confirm which items were back ordered so that I'd know what to expect in the shipment and it's a good thing I did! They were holding the rest of my order until those few items showed up at the distribution center. They'll go ahead and send what's in stock if you contact them (they offered, I didn't have to ask). My order contains 32 items and they're not being delivered to the job site so breaking it up into smaller deliveries is definitely a good thing!

Black Friday - Turkey Sale
Q

I certainly would do that if I could find turkeys at that price around here. The cheapest turkeys are ever on sale for around here is maybe $1.98 a pound. And that is just a run-of-the mill, mass-produced grocery store turkey. I have to pay anywhere from $3.50 to $4.00 a pound for a free range turkey from one of the local farms. I almost bought a half turkey breast yesterday. Just a small one about two pounds and they wanted $17.00 for it so I passed. Instead I bought some turkey wings and they are on simmering for a pot of broth to make soup with. Ann

Good online sales pre- Black Friday? (And convalescence question.)

I usually make a shutterfly album from summer vacation pics, and I haven't done that yet...so there's something I can do. I also just downloaded a modern cross-stitch pattern from etsy, so I might have my home-from-college DS drive me to the craft store tomorrow for a quick excursion to buy supplies for that. Bought new living room pillow covers from etsy too...merry Christmas to me! I watched the first episode of "Good Behavior" (new series with the actress who played Mary from Downton Abbey) this morning...I liked it. I have the second episode to watch, too. Fun to see her in such a dramatically different role.

No and never would. I just bought a bunch of stuff on Amazon.com for Christmas, so easy.

Never have, never will.

Thanksgiving is supposed to be about families....all those people who camped out all day in line aren't with their families - just to save a few dollars.

I think it's a shame.

Cannot even imagine doing so..I like my big comfy bed too much.
And like someone mentioned I have enough.

Never! My daughter is part of the midnight madness. she works at a clothing store in a mall and had to be at work midnight Thursday. We ate at 5, she did some laundry and was out the door around 11. just about the time I went to bed.

No I never have and don't ever intend to. We went for a ride yesterday just to see people wrapped up in blankets in lawn chairs, some with tents, and just laughed. There will probably be a lot of sick people in a few days.

No, I never have and at my age won't now. I would go shopping today if I felt more up to it. I think it is fun when shopping with family.

It was not on Black Friday, but I did camp out for a WII when they were just about impossible to find! Found a website that tracked shipments, so I knew Best Buy and Target were getting them in. Was awake anyways so I headed out for Best Buy at 5:00 AM...well, there were already so many people in line that I drove past it and went to Target instead. GOOD MOVE. Within 2 minutes hoards (literally) of cars were in the Target lot (right next door). People started running to get a place in line. I was #32 and after waiting for several hours rumor had it they had at least 50. Yes, I did get the WII, my son was very grateful! My only regret was that it was VERY cold that morning, and I was under dressed.

I haven't Glenda...but my daughters did about three or four years ago..It was below zero. My son took a gas powered heater up there for them and a whole bunch of people were trying to hover around to keep warm. They said they nearly froze to death.

Last night it was in the 60's and none of them went...lol
