Too scary to go into stores.<br /><br />@Jane--One of my daughter's friends "camped" on a long line outsdie a store--but i think she thought it was "fun." That's crazy too.<br /><br />@Funny-I broke w/ tradition and only got a washer--probably the cheapest one made. My old dryer will have to do. Costco sounds scary to me the day after Thanksgiving.<br /><br />@metscan--=Don't worry. I didn't venture into the madness. Bought both items online and they will be delivered. Both were needed items too.Frugal Scholarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12696815672500452503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8242926316765633205.post-23530163723296497702010-11-26T13:17:10.924-06:002010-11-26T13:17:10.924-06:00Today I heard from our national radio about Black ...Today I heard from our national radio about Black Friday. So it is THE day, when everything is reduced. The first stores opened right after midnight and there were crowds of people shopping like it was the last day. The store keepers were optimistic. Wow.<br />Anyways, you really did get your articles at a cheap price!mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732534795009852825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8242926316765633205.post-46750606553680361812010-11-26T13:14:31.066-06:002010-11-26T13:14:31.066-06:00Wow!

The closest store is in the same shopping center as a Walmart...and I know I don't want to brave those crowds! Guess I'll have to drive up in the other direction to an outlet that resides in its own parking lot.Funny about Moneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13188173788063351801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8242926316765633205.post-44388648388265297662010-11-26T11:32:40.453-06:002010-11-26T11:32:40.453-06:00Well actually, some Canadian stores, like Giant Ti...Well actually, some Canadian stores, like Giant Tiger, are having some deals in order to compete with the U.S. It seems to be working as I heard there was NO lineup at the Canadian/U.S. border this morning. I just hope it doesn't get as crazy here with thousands of people lining up to get into stores.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803104035204416080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8242926316765633205.post-59016562697977646692010-11-26T09:56:33.191-06:002010-11-26T09:56:33.191-06:00We do not have Black Friday in Canada...but we do ...We do not have Black Friday in Canada...but we do have Boxing Day after Xmas.<br /><br />Hope that you have a great weekend...and if you do shop...show us what bargains that you got :)hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.com
