Back from Black Friday

Friday, November 23rd, 2007 | Holidays, Home Life |

We did the Black Friday thing again. Nice way to get in the holiday spirit, save some money, and get a jump on Christmas shopping.

Toys R Us - We started here at 6:00 am. Incredibly long line - at least 100 feet if not more. Aisles so clogged you could barely get a cart through. No deals in sight. The Fisher Price Learning Cycle we want for Katie was $89 last week at Wal-Mart. On Black Friday Toys R Us had it for the incredible low price of … $99. Never again.

Old Navy - Short lines, 50% off sales. Totally worth it.

Kohl’s - Fairly long lines but not too bad. Lots of 50% off sales, including most of their toys. Worth it.

Belk’s - Short lines, lots of sales and early bird specials. $25 off coupons in the newspaper. Melissa bought a $143 coat and a top for $53. Totally worth it.

Presents bought: Natalie, Katie, Connie, Eric, Geneva, Hazel, Larissa. A couple of clothes for each of us, and a new comforter. Not bad for a morning’s haul.

LATER: Melissa went to Target and found some great deals and picked up more kids presents and kids and grownup DVDs (she bought The Departed and 300 for less than $5 each).
