Anybody going shopping tomorrow?

[Toby's my baby]

I was just curious to see how many of you were going shopping tomorrow (black friday)....?

My mom, sister, and I are going shopping tomorrow morning, hopefully we can find some good stuff!

I HATE CROWDS! (don't really care for shopping either!) Tomorrow, I am joinging my ex at my sons house for Thanksgiving dinner.... His wife had to work today so they are doing it tomorrow.

whats black friday?

[Mutt_Maniac]

black friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving day. It is called "Black Friday" because it either makes or breaks the stores. Meaning: On that day, they will usually get all the money they will make for the year. It is also the buisiest shopping day of the year and there are MAJOR sales!

I'll be going to a few smaller scale stores, ones that I doubt will be too busy. I won't be going to the malls or Walmart though, no thanks. Have fun though!

[MariaM]

Haha, I think so. Only here, Thanksgiving is much earlier, and they just call it "Midnight Madness". It only happens at the mall though, and I think they switched it to "Moonlight Madness" because it used to mean the stores were open until 12, but not it's only 11 I think. I'm not sure if we have THAT many sales, but who knows. Hopefully I'll get some Christmas presents - I just wish it was a little later on, like in December, because I like going to it with my friend, but I just can't stand waiting so long to give the gifts to people.
Funny how they have it on the same day, even though we don't have the Thanksgiving, nor have I ever heard it being called "black friday".

I have never heard the expression Black Friday either, but I love any reason to shop!

[dukedogsmom]

I usually love to that day but I'll have been up all night and will need to get home and get some sleep. It's so much fun, though! I hope you all get good parking spaces tomorrow. Good luck! I went shopping last night, though.

Please, give us retailers a break! -_- Black Friday is always hellish, so the more people who stay home and relax the better for us.

I HATE HATE HATE noisy kids, and I'm not fond of crowds either, so tomorrow's going to be miserable.

[cyber-sibes]

NNNOOOOOOO i'm not going shopping tomorrow - are you kidding? I hate crowds. However, I work in a store at the mall and I will be working tomorrow till 10 pm!

PS - black friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving day. It is called "Black Friday" because it either makes or breaks the stores. Meaning: On that day, they will usually get all the money they will make for the year. It is also the buisiest shopping day of the year and there are MAJOR sales! Black Friday is the day the stores go from being "in the red", meaning they are losing money, to being "in the black", which means they are making money. It's a thing in accounting.

Ralph and I got up just before 6am, went to Sears and bought a TV for the basement, were home by 7, crawled back in bed, and I up getting up now! Not sure I will will brave it again later or not, but if I do, I'll wait for the evening specials...the 7-10pm or so, when many shoppers have gone home

[catnapper]

My goodness NO! I worked retail for too many years to know I HATE being in that crowd!

I have to go to the bank today and I'm dreading the drive because its just down the street from a shopping center.... traffic by the malkls today is awful!

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

This doesn't exist here .
I voted YES, because we need groceries for the weekend

[finn's mom]

That's a huge no for me. I don't mind crowds, but, shopping crowds are awful. People just get really ugly this time of year in situations like that. I would if my mother asked me to go with her, or someone else that I loved being with...but, other than that, I wouldn't go.

[Toby's my baby]

I just got home and I had a blast!! My mom is done christmas shopping, except for me and my sisters presents! My mom even bought a present for herself, but me and my sister helped pay for it as a Christmas present for her, because thats what she asked for.
Her's what she bought....


-edit- in case you dont know, it is a cd player for her car, she gets free installation when she gets back from Florida next week.
