Aloha,Turkeys!

I hope you had a FABULOUS Thanksgiving yesterday!

Did you have PIE?

(I made one that DID NOT SUCK! Yay, me!)


I have a PLAN to hit the stores for some black Friday shopping later today.

I am NOT one of those 4 am crazies...although I am not above it. If there was something I really wanted, I would go out, but there never seems to be anything on my list that makes me feel the need to head to KMart in my PJs...

I do like to go out into the hustle and bustle though...for some reason it gets me in the holiday mood!

Are YOU one of the 4am crazies?

Are you doing any shopping at all today?

What are you to going to get me?
(My wish list will be furnished upon request)

I figure that I am way safer staying out of the stores. I did get some stuff online- sticking to my list!

I very briefly considered whether $30 off a Nintendo DS was worth a 5am visit to Wal Mart. $30 is a decent amount off and of course that price was out of stock online. But then I figured there would be 500 other people wanting what would turn out to be probably 7 Nintendo DSs and I am just not ruthless enough to get one.

So I stayed in bed and considered the $30 a 'wimp fee'

Congrats on the pie!

I am not shopping today. I am not even remotely interested in going out with the crushing crowds.

Rob said...

We had pumpkin cheesecake yesterday and I am crazy (LOL) but not at 4am on Black Friday!

JDaniel4's Mom said...

I stayed home and away from masses.

I love a good bargain. I wouldn't mind doing some shopping today, but we are spending the day hanging out with family we don't get to see often enough and have to say good bye to too soon.

I WANTED to shop today but no such luck! My hubby had a longstanding dirtbike day with the guys and that took precedence. LOL It's probably a good thing though because I love the hustle and bustle of it all too and the IDEA of a great buy, but the crowds frustrate me. I'm holding out for cyber Monday. LOL

I had butterfinger cake and apple pie...and I was asleep this morning when everyone was out getting all the good deals!

Jen said...

I did no shopping today. I am in denial that Christmas is less than a month away. I did eat a slice of apple pie yesterday (with ice cream) and a slice of pumpkin roll--YUM!! Does that count for anything?

Kristen Andrews said...

not a 4am crazy, we went to target at noon and still got the stuff we wanted

Annie said...

Congratulations for the pie.

No, I don't do any shopping today.

Have a nice weekend.

Stopping from An Island Life.

I'm definitely not a '4 AM Crazy'. But a strange part of me wakes up, looks at the clock and thinks 'Wow, people are shopping right now'. And I keep doing it until 7 !!! I make no sense.

I hope your holidays are off to a great start Jenni :->

Twincerely,Olga said...

no, no and no!! Styaed home with my twinkies!

Candice said...

I've done black friday exactly once. I managed not to kill anyone, just barely.

Needless to say I've learned my lesson and I would rather pay full price than go through that hell ever again.

Amanda said...

I was a midnight crazy at Toys R Us. Then I got home and found out they had the work bench that I was getting my 3yo online for the same sale price. A lot of the stores had the same sales online as in store this year. I was mad to find out I could've stayed home, warm, and dry.

kailani said...

I prefer to shop online where I can wear my PJs while shopping! LOL!

Woo hoo on the pie! I love pie!

I blogged about Black Friday at my place.

It kicked my butt -- you know, being on the other side of the register. But it was fun and busy and I loved talking to the people and hearing about their bargain score. Most people were nice -- except for some mean lady that stole someone's else's skirt from her pile. Whaddyagonnado?...

Hope you scored some deals!

Hugs!

I did hit a few stores. I can't help it I'm always looking for a deal and it strangely gets me in the holiday spirit.

i have never been a black friday shopper, I don't get the whole craze. maybe cause I never know what I'm getting or have the funds to buy anything right after Thanksgiving.

Kelly said...

Hey Jenni! This is Kelly -- from the ZIN msg boards -- you came by my blog awhile back. I just got a chance to browse your blog and I've decided I'm way too serious on mine. LOL You are a hoot! Will be back! Oh...and no, I am not a Black Friday crazy at ANY time of the day, and yes I had pie! Pecan. It was to die for. I made it. MMMMMM gooood!

I don't do black friday anymore. Cyber monday though? Oh yeah!

Heatherlyn said...

I hate crowds and lines so ... no black Friday for me.

I do like pies. :)

mommablogsalot said...

I definitely had pie - three different kinds! but I opted out of the 4am craziness. Never again.
