Default Is ANYONE here going to go holiday shopping today?

My alarm clock didn't go off last night, and so I thought I might have to replace it today before going to bed.

No friggen way....I'm not going anywhere near a retail store today. I'll use my phone's alarm.

I'm stunned any reasonable person would start that kind of shopping today. Do you guys even consider it?

The key to the day after Thanksgiving is to check out the sales flyers ahead of time, pick out what you want (some great sales today) and arrive when they open at 6 or 7 am. Grab what you want and check out within 1/2 hour. No check out lines, got your stuff, go home.

It would be kind of fun to go if I could come up with pranks to pull on all the crazy shoppers. Or, if I had something to give away. "Since you will be shopping all day, we have 8-balls on sale in aisle 9. If that isn't your thing we have a buy one get one free of Xanex."

p.s. Whiskey, I have been responding to a lot of your threads, I promise I am not stalking you (unless that is your thing).

Only if you're a woman, which I gather, Craig, you are not...LOL

After the [censored] I've caught lately I'm just glad to have threads people would rather respond then flame.

Speaking of "flaming", so you don't want me to stalk you? Aren't you in a band? Don't you need groupies? I can throw my boxers on the stage.

the money you save (for the most part) won't be worth your time if you make a reasonable rate per hour. Last year my parents stood in line at best buy for like 90 minutes, not to mention traffic etc....

As a rule of thumb, I *usually* avoid anything done by the masses in large droves.

Gave the gal-pal some money and sent her on her way. There's football to watch and forbidden P-word to play.
