Are we crazy or what? No, it's just another adventure for us. We decided to go shopping at the day after Thanksgiving Sales. Hmmm, that means I was up at 2AM and on my way to Amber's house. We really didn't have anything special we were looking for, we just wanted to go for the experience.
Will volunteered to be our chauffeur. Amber is in the warm truck as we wait for Penney's to open at 3:45, and yes, that's AM.
Amber and Jennie are in line at Old Navy. Amber's to the right of the green tree. You could find your item, but the lines were REALLY long.
I'm holding Amber's slippers as we wait in line to pay. Fortunately this line was not very long.
Our next stop was Target, which opened at 5:00 AM. The line wound all the way around the Target store and then around the Sears building. By the time we got in the store there were already people coming out with their purchases. We found one item to buy, but the line at the registers went across the front of the store, down the side and half-way across the back. It wasn't worth the wait to save $5.00. We put the item back and headed to our next stop.
This is the Target parking lot at 5:30 AM. It was packed! We couldn't believe the number of people out shopping and they WERE shopping. Look at the shopping bags and cart full of Christmas gifts.
I bet you're asking if we would do this again. Ah, probably not. Other than the fact that I am NOT a morning person I am not willing to fight the crowds to save just a few dollars.
