It’s Thanksgiving time again and that means Black Friday! So I ate some pumpkin pie and prepared for my favorite shopping day of the year. My pre game strategy always comes from Black Friday ad scans weeks before but I always end up spending midnight pining over the various deals and mapping out my game plain of what stores I intend to hit.
This year I started at Best Buy @ 5AM (as always) and then we moved on to Target, Walmart, and Costco, with a break in the middle for the golden arches. I didn’t have any big-ticket items this year so I did the bulk of my shopping at Target and it was a MAD HOUSE! I’m used to the huge crowds at Best Buy but this year Target was the place to be.

This year I couldn’t have done it alone! Thank God I had my sister and her fiancé to hold the cart.

While Todd manned my cart with my son’s Lego set …

I went out with free arms to wrestle a Soccer Mom for one of the last pink Little Tykes Digital Cameras.

And yes my little girl will not have a blue camera this Christmas.

All and all it was a great time. It seamed like most people bought up the cheap flat screen TVs this year but I had no need, room, or money for any more televisions.
