Black Friday Shopping(Working smarter, not harder)

[4runner freak]

Well, once again we went out last night and this morning to find some ripping deals on Black Friday.
Of course, this year they handed out coupons for the doorbuster items(I had no idea) and so there was no mad rush, trampling to be had.
Since I was hoping for a 46" Westinghouse LCD TV from Target, and the line was 3/4 of the way around the store at 11pm(they opened at 12), I asked a couple guys at the front of the line if they were planning on getting one and one of the guys wasn't, so I asked him if he would get me the ticket for $20.

Kind of cheating, I know, but we were able to go grab a bite to eat and come back at midnight and get the TV.
I searched craigslist yesterday and actually found a guy that was at the front of the line at a Best Buy and was starting bidding($50 min) for his ticket.
Great way to make some money for your time.
I'm just glad that my guy didn't ask for more.

Did you guy dare the trampling?

I was also in line at target at the mill. We got there at 9 and were like the 15th or so in line. I managed to snag 3 of those TVS haha! The grandparents aunt and uncles ought to be happy this year. Also finally picked up an Xbox too. It was my first black friday

I didn't really need anything, so I didn't make the Black Friday rush. Also had to work today, but I made a quick stop before work. I went to both Home Depot and Lowes this morning. There was a coupon for Ace for 30% of anything regular price from 7-9AM. Both Lowes and HD honor other coupons, so I bought house stuff for a deep discount.

I bought....nothing. Nothing at all today.

Me either, I hate shopping and hate crowds even more.

I drove to Ft Collins to pick up my daughter. I-25 was devoid of the usual traffic.

Had to go to Sears for a 7/32, 3/8's drive allen tipped socket for the diff cover on the 14BFF. It's installed and almost complete! YAY!
