How did this happen? I wasn't into BF shopping this year. Had only 1 thing that I wanted to go out and get. Well...6 hours later I'm finally done!
Started out at 8am. Like I said I only wanted 1 thing and I knew it wouldn't sell out. I was looking for a wine refrigerator. There were a few places that had them on sale but I started at
Best Buy. They had a 12 bottle one for $57. Other places had an 8 bottle one for $49 after rebates. Now I absolutely HATE Best Buy and had vowed I would never go there again. But the price lured me in. Went straight to the home appliance department and found a big stack of the refridgerators but they were marked $99. The sales associate told me that was the price and they were not on sale. When I inquired as to why there were so many of them in the stack that was in the middle of the aisle, she couldn't explain. I asked her to check the ad, which she did, but still told me this wasn't the one on sale. I asked her to check to computer and 5 minutes later she finally admitted this was the one on sale. To her credit she did go off and find me a cart so I wouldn't have to carry it.
Got in line, only 3 people ahead of me. Checked out pretty fast. Had a $25 Visa gift card, so my final cost was $37.
Asked the cashier how long the line was when they finally opened. It had wrapped around the parking lot. But she laughed about it because all those folks did not need to line up, 3 hours after opening they still had all the door busters available.
Since my one item was somewhat painless, I decided to hit up JCPenney, just in case they still had the Mickey snow globes. Nope they were all gone. Wandered around but there wasn't anything I was interested in enough to brave the 20 people deep lines.
Headed home and got DS and we had a nice breakfast. Then it was off again. I decided I needed new wine glasses to serve the wine in that was going to be chilled in the new fridge. Grabbed my Bed, Bath and Beyond coupons and headed out. Didn't realize that they were giving 20% your entire purchase before 10am. I missed it by 30 minutes, but I had my coupons. Didn't find any wine glasses I liked but I did grab a fancy new bottle opener set and a kitchen trash can with a lid. Our old one didn't have a lid and the dog has been getting into it. I had 2 20% off coupons and a $25 gift card. All I paid was $0.96. Score another bargain!
Next it was OSH because they are offering no sales tax this weekend. Picked up a small chain saw, garden lopers, gloves and soap for the carpet cleaner. The shelf for the chain saw had 2 sale signs indicating a price of $39.97 but it kept ringing up in the register for $44.97. They sent a manager back but he couldn't find it. He kept insisting the price was $44.
99. I had to walk him back there, show him the signs, then take the sign back to the register to get the price. Turns out the sale ended on the 21st but they never took the signs down, so I got the sale price. Then I confused things even more because I had a $10 off $50 coupon AND another $25 Visa gift card. Final price at OSH was $43.xx.
Finally swung by the Dollar Tree since our local one just got a freezer section. Picked up some waffles, huge pretzels, chicken nuggets, fries, and corn dogs. DS is set for the weekend. Won't last him too long, he's become the proverbial teenage bottomless pit. This wasn't necessarily a Black Friday stop, just a convient one since it was right next to OSH.
WHEW...I'm tired!
& her drum sticks were a golden brown.]
s' night, don't they? 
, wonder what he was looking for?
I am getting up in 4 more hours to get my free J C Penney Mickey Mouse Snow Globe to ad to my collection. I think this makes number 8 Penney's has given out!!!
You know I won't sleep until I figure this out.
