black friday... how'd you do?
so total recap of the night....
mind you, we don't really get crazy over items, we just go to go.. we usually have fun, IF we can get items we want/need thats just a bonus.
the group consisted of myself, DH, my brother and SIL
walmart-
wanted: (sil wanted) egyptian cotton towels, shark vacuum, jeep luggage, paula dean pots and pans
10:47- arrive at walmart
locate items
separate, me- towels, dh- luggage, bro- vaccuum, sil-PDPP
the rules: you were allowed IN the store, but you were NOT allowed to take items from shelf/display.
so i go to the towels, I wait... some woman walks by and grabs towels, nobody says anything... so I take what I need and go to my SIL.
my SIL is in a nook, with a display to her side and the pots and pans in front, with a row of other items. security is setting people up. it was like a big L and we were in the little corner.
so she decides to leave me there so she can help DH grab two (well 3) suit cases.
we wait... I make friends with people around me. we laugh... then the count down starts
they said NO TOUCHING until 12...
11:57 we see a box taken off a shelf and all hell breaks loose!
I yell 'GO' to the people I was near (we had a system made)
next thing I know, some assshole pushes through the corner of the 'L' knocks me down and kicks me in the face, then jumps another display and goes towards something else.
I'm helped up and just start grabbing what i need.
(one of the woman i was near punched the guy in the back= AWESOME)
so i decide that i want some tupperwear that was next to me, but its still in plastic. so i use my sharp nails and cut into it. well my hand was cut by a piece of cardboard. whatever- it hurts worse than my face, but i'll live.
so we meet at the registers... that weren't updated with sale prices.
wait... get out of there.
12:27 we arrive at tanger.
go into old navy- grab what we wanted--- the line was HUGE.. like i've never seen a line THAT long in old navy.... so we put our stuff down and decide we'll try the other store later.
go to famous footwear- bro found shoes, but the line was long, and there weren't any major sales.. so no shoes.
go to toys r us (guys went to nike)
got toys for nephews
met at nike, found my missing bro.
got in the car and went to my brothers to drop off stuff from walmart.
go to old navy (different one) SIL and I grab our 'velour suits' (go ahead, laugh it up becki!) got PJ pants...
2:45 drive past target- no line
2:53 pull into kohls parking lot... line is AROUND the entire building
2:57 we get on line
3:03- we are INSIDE the building
we split up....
I got two towels, a new bubble coat (my sil got a matching one- yea, we're dumb, but they are warm), another toy for nephew, dh got a charging station/organizer thing. my bro/sil got clothes, the coat, etc.
we drive past bestbuy
we laugh at the people outside because they are likely there for the same thing and prob don't realize that bestbuy only has THREE in stock...
we arrive at target at this point time is un-important and un-known.
the line is huge. we didn't really need anything, we just wanted to kill time before lowes opened (right next door)
so we get on the second line.... we're in the store in under 5 minutes from exiting the car.
i go to the toys department just to see if they had what my niece wanted---- i got the last one. (that furreal friend walking dog)
i go to the front with my SIL.
theres people EVERYWHERE... but one line with noone on it...
we were out of the store in under 15 minutes.
so we go to lowes.
we wait outside in the cold rain for 30 minutes... yea, the ONE store we wait outside and its lowes... there were 3 people ahead of us and maybe 4 or 5 after... 'watch out now, they might run out'
![]()
(actually we found out that they sell their stock online and that comes out of the amount they have... so if they had 10 trees and 8 were sold online, then the schmucks waiting in the rain has to fight over the last 2) luckily... that didnt happen to us.
we got a christmas tree, air pump thing, safe and christmas lights.
my brother got 2 air pump things, a shopvac and something else.
we leave, try and figure out how to fit EVERYTHING in the truck... i had to sit with a 'barking dog' on my lap- i hate it already.
so lets go back to tanger... because my brother REALLY wants those shoes.
my feet are dragging and i can't function. (ps i got 5 hours of sleep wed into thurs)
we go back to my brothers... start separating everything and realize that our stuff wont fit in my truck (because of the rain i couldn't put it in the bed) so my brother is going to come drop our stuff at our house. okay.
BUT my SIL wants to go to shop rite.... at 8:00am after only 5 hours sleep in like what 50+ hours.. and a night of shopping.
so we get suckered into it. drop stuff at my house. go to some GROSS bagel store. go to shop rite for paper towels and filet mignon.
back to my brothers to get my truck.
we get home...
its 8:36 am when i finally hit my bed.
we didn't get out of bed until 4:30pm
we're now doing some errands with(for) my brother... get home, go to bed at... 3:00AM.
we had to be up at 5:00AM to go to PA...
I slept the entire ride there and back...
its monday at 11:02... i feel like death.
thats all. the end. no funny punch line. no animals were harmed while typing this...
soooo.. how was YOUR black friday?
