Black Friday

Picture this..... it's 11:30 pm when some people are going to bed... the 3 of us.... are going shopping! That's when black Friday started for us.... 11:30pm






Walmart opened at midnight... and we were there for the show! as far as you could see..... people and sale boxes.

we weren't sure where this night would take, the next store wasn't open til 4am... but as we shopped and then stood in a monstrous long line we realized our time line was closing in... making it possible perhaps to keep going without heading home to sleep. All 3 of us are the same when it comes to sleep... we don't like to, and when we do we don't like to wake up... so pulling an all nighter was much more appealing to us than waking up at 4....

this would help....
funny story, when we got to the til, there was a burst of heat, I had to take my jacket off, I was melting and then about 5 minutes later, Maddie turned white as a ghost, and had to sit down, she felt awful all of a sudden, so we sent her to stand outside to cool off, when she came back a couple of minutes later she started to get her color back.... but the funny part was... the guy behind the till, looks at Maddie and says "I like your hair" then he starts to blush and says " I was gonna say something else, but I can't" so he blushes more and says " I was going to say it's sexy... but then I'll get in trouble" haha so even when she doesn't feel well, she's still cute as a button :-) the poor guy stayed red faced until we were gone!

when we got out of Walmart it was 1:55. so we headed to the outlet mall to go to Hot Topic... which opened at 10pm. So here we are walking thru the mall at 2 in the morning and it looks and feels like noon!!

we exit the mall at 3:23 a little early for the 4am Target opening... so .....

leaving the mall we head to....

IHOP for breakfast! We had the sweetest waitress, how was she so perky at 4am?

there was a flashing cop car we weren't sure if we missed an incident or if they were just there for a presence.When we into Target it looked like the line was wrapping itself around the store. We said : we have to really want it to stand in line here" there were al lot of people with 40' flatscreens in their carts, but wasn't an option for us.... so we ended up leaving the few items we picked up and headed to our last destination... Joanne's craft shop and Best Buy....
they were opening at 6am, so we had a few minutes to wait in line... we split up here, Dean went to Best buy, me and Maddie to the craft store....
this was where our major purchases came from... we got a bluray player, a WII, a handful of cricut cartridges and a Cricut Imagine, I won't bore you with all the details of my stuff... but lol I will tell you they were all for scrapbooking.

and here we are at home.... we left in the dark and came home in the daylight... we went directly to bed! Happy Black Friday... uhmm now how do we get all this stuff home???
