Re: Did you shop day-after-Thanksgiving sales?
You know, every year there are such good sales, that I really wish that I could take advantage of them, but rarely do I ever go out to shop the day after Thanksgiving! Several years ago my mom made me go, because she had to work that day and wanted to take advantage of some of the sales, but it was NUTS and I vowed to NEVER do that again!
Then, a few years back, we stopped out on Black Friday, but not when the stores opened. We were on our way back from Oconto Falls, it was already afternoon, and we stopped at a couple of stores in Green Bay but they were already out of most of what we wanted, so we jumped back on the highway and headed home. I haven't done it since. There's no way that I could even get up that early, with most places starting at 5am and now they are even just opening back up at Midnight, and the crazy people are there, standing in line, in the freezing cold and with completely full bellies!!! It's just NUTS!!!
Aint gonna be me! LOL. ;-)
