Well got up late and ran over to Circuit City to pickup two dvds. A big sign said "1 hour checkout" so we split. In truth, I was looking for the new Diehard disc and Santa Claus 3 for the kids so no biggie.

Hit a Target across the street and was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Both on sale for 15.00 so total haul was less than 32.00w/ tax.

Got home and visited a couple detailing sites, of course Autogeek and Werkstatt were the only two with nice sales so a quick order and the rest of the day was spent relaxing at home. I resisted the Flex buffer for now, but gotta have one of these toys soon.

I guess I gotta ask, why do you all put yourself thru this and what are you planning to spend today ! Anyone make a killing ??

I went to CompUSA and it wasn't to bad. I have a busness account there and a lady who aways takes great care of me and checked me right out at the business check out. Traffic was very bad so I was glad to get home

I can say without a doubt I am glad I worked today and did not go shopping! Is the savings really worth all that hassle?!?!

While I was playing the wife made a killing. She bought a 7' pre-lit Christmas tree, 2006 yr., normally $299.99 for $88.
Our town had people camped all night in line at "Best Buy". Probably to get the lap top for $399 but not sure.
I'm still looking for a sale on an HD DVD player like you guys found last week. No luck yet.

It's not the $100 deal Jimmie, but Amazon has an HDA3 for $199 with 10 HD DVDs instead of 5. It comes with 300 and the Bourne Identity and you choose the other 8.

I got one! It must have been 10 years ago I went out on black friday with a girlfriend. I told myself I would NEVER DO IT AGAIN!
Well today I had a temporary laps of judgement! I only wanted to pick up 1 item at Kohl's. So.... I foolishly thought how bad can it be. The store is less than 2 miles from my house. So I left for work an hour before normal... thinking that is more than enough time to get 1 item. I got right in the store, had a great parking spot, it was not crowded at all, really! You know why.... because the freakin check out line had a 1 1/2 to 2 hour wait

Those women are nuts! I returned my item and went into work early

What was I thinking!!!

Glad I worked as well. 1966 Mustang and a 2006 Mustang.
On my way home, I had to drive past the mall, was about 2PM.
OMG, there were cars parked across the street from the mall it was so packed.

All I could say to myself....... SUCKERS
Not worth the savings to me. Though Best Buy had a laptop and printer for $289ish. Wish I could have picked that up, even though I imagine it was a cheapy. Could have made a good work laptop.
