Hungry hippos was all gone! strangly of all things, my daughter really wanted it and has been asking for a month and it was the only thing on my list that was sold out!

  • My SIL and her friends wanted to start the night at the Coach Outlet, so we were in line there at 10:20PM last night. (They opened at Midnight.) From that point we shopped at a mulititude of stores at two local malls. We hit Old Navy at 3AM, Walmart at 5AM, and Target at 5:30AM. I spent almost 90 minutes in line with them waiting to pay. My only purchase? A bathrobe for my son, lol. I just got home maybe 20 minutes ago. (It's 9:15AM here.) There was just nothing out there that tickled my fancy.

  • Got all the movies I wanted at Walmart, jeans for kid, new coat for kid, 2 sets of the Rubbermaid locking containers, a skate board and a basketball. Did pretty good. Wasn't really after anything special. Can't believe there was a fist fight over a freaking GPS, people are so insane. I've never been a BF shopper, so it was too much. I got pushed which caused my cart to hit a man in the heel he said GDamnit really loud it was too much. I was like sorry but he was still being all rude so I was like geez dude chill out. Crazy stuff. Like loins on a lamb in there.

    If you wait until Monday most onlie places will have lower prices than instores as well as free shipping.  I havent set foot in a mall-department-wal mart-kmart-target at this time of year in at least 7 years.  You don't have to shop early either.  The longer you wait the bigger the savings and when you get down to the wire most places offer free overnight shipping.  I ususally get most things a week prior to Christmas.
