Grocery Shopping on Black Friday?

[EvangelineG]

Hi all,

We will be arriving at MCO on the evening of Friday November 23rd. We were thinking of stopping by the Super Target on Rolling Oaks blvd to pick up a few groceries en route to the vacation villa we're renting. It would be around 9pm. Is this a bad plan? Are the stores still going to be crazy busy by that time of day?

We could go the following morning instead, but I'd rather get it done the night before. Would Publix maybe be a better bet than a Target on that day? I've never been shopping in the US on Black Friday, all I know is from the crazy news footage we see every year ...and I don't want to start out vacation by fighting my way through mobs of people just to get some bread and juice.

It should have calmed down, but I would vote Publix... way less crowded.

Thanks for responding! I think Publix may be the way to go.

I think it will be fine by then. We went out at noon on black Friday to Target and it had really calmed down. Happy Travels!
