    Not a thing. I avoid malls and big-box stores like the plague even when it's not the busiest retail shopping day of the year. I've done virtually all my holiday shopping online for a decade now, and see no reason to change. I do not suffer sales-crazed a$$hats lightly.

    I may wake up and make myself a nice cold turkey sammich tho! Hehehe! :bigsmile:

    Staying as far away from the stores as possible!! I've been scoping out the deals on bfads.net and will do a little on-line shopping. We've already got most of our shopping done and shipped already. Have to plan early when kids live overseas!

    Working in the biggest retail shopping center in the United States.




    Help me. :sad:
    Good luck to you. That's frightening.

    I have the day off but my husband has to go to work. I will probably do some house cleaning and play some video games. Make some soup. And read some more "A Clash of Kings".

    Hiking some rugged north Idaho mountain in search of the elusive Wapiti...........better known as the Rocky Mountain Elk. It's very low fat and is a fantastic source of protein! Plus.......I'll burn a few thousand calories packing it out:)

    I haven't decided yet.

    For some reason I love the rush of Black Friday shopping! But I don't think I have anything I really need this year. Going for clothes sounds like a great idea, though!

    I LOVE IT TOO!!!! I haven't needed anything for years. My friend and I go every year. It's a tradition for us. We get the ads early from the BF websites. We plan it all out. It'll be different this year though, cause the stores here are opening at MIDNIGHT instead of the usual 3-5am. By 4am, I've already made a trip back to the house to unload the SUV, then back to the stores. Everybody knows we do it- they text us all night with things on their wish list. Last year, we got 4 -42" tvs ($289 each!) Rediculious I know. It's always a BLAST! Watching the craziness is half of the fun.

    I CAN'T WAIT!!!

    I'm trying to hold out until Black Friday to buy myself a steam cleaner. Hoping to find a good deal on one but I hate crowds on a normal shopping day so I can't imagine going shopping on Black Friday. Maybe I can find a good deal on line. Then I can sleep in.

    Praying no one gets killed in another Wal-Mart trampling.... Maybe I'll head out after 10 am when all the 4am'ers are getting tired and going home.

    I don't know exactly where you want this question to go but I know that where I buy my HMR product is having a cyber Monday sale. It is the only time of the year that it is 20% off. I figure if I can get the weight down I don't care what I pay for cloths.

    Shopping for me and my sisters :) This year will be even better cause my mom has moved here. I know it's crazy, but it's the time together that I mostly enjoy. Then when all the shopping is done we go for a nice breakfast.

    I live in a small town ( we don't even have a JCPenny) so Black Friday is not all that bad. Last year we got a TV for $900 marked down from $1800. This year I think I am going for some nice speakers. After that I will go home and go back to bed!

    I know. When I told my son I was considering going shopping on Black Friday, he asked me if I was crazy and told me people get trampled to death shopping on Black Friday. :frown:
