Did you get up at 4 am so you could wait in line for the stores to open this morning?

Poll - Total Votes: 26
I was camped out waiting for the stores to open.
I was in bed sipping coffee with my laptop letting my fingers do the shopping.
Oh heck no! I was home sound asleep.
I actually had to work this morning. 😭

I bought NOTHING. Actually, I haven't been able to buy bleach or Laundry sanitizer this month.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@4meAndyou I have always enjoyed helping and only wish I could do more, but I have never been rich enough to help the way I really want to.

@Musicman When and if things ease up, please consider helping food challenged people who live nearby. THAT means so much.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@4meAndyou Yes it does. I like helping the local animal shelters too.

I stayed home yesterday. But got an email that the place I buy my CBD oil was having a 50% off sale on all their products so I ordered 2 more bottles last night. It is helping my blood pressure so I am going to keep taking it.

@cherokeepatti Outstanding! Congratulations 🙂🙂🙂

I never do the Black Friday sales ;I'm not interested.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Justmeraeagain I definitely understand that. I have absolutely no interest in standing in line at 4 am for a sale.

I actually looked briefly online as I had my morning coffee and banana, then breakfast, and slipped into the woods around 2PM looking for the Buck I have been hunting all season long.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@WillaKissing Good for you 🙂 I hope you have fun. 🙂
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Musicman Thank you and only God willing will I be blessed with one of those three.

Every minute in the woods with my thoughts and God is fun.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@WillaKissing Yes it is. ☺ Wishing you all the best 🙂

Not since the early 2000’s when saving $30 was legit and felt like a thrilling sport worth diving into. Didn’t even know it was still a thing considering the Black Friday sales have been going on for the past couple of weeks.

No I'm still sick. I don't have it in me to fight crowds.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@deepblacknothingness Exactly! Plus you can ask questions and physically hold or touch it.
deepblacknothingness · 56-60, M
@Musicman Yes and can compare several boxes at once to see what's best. Online you get ripped off easy. In the past where I tried it I think I'm getting one thing and what comes feels and looks very chintzy and like a knock off.

Nope what we bought was on sale this evening
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Shybutwilling2bfriends What did you get? 🙂
@Musicman an electric heater stand up kind that looks like its burning wood
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Shybutwilling2bfriends Excellent! 🙂
Degbeme · 70-79, M
I have never done that.
anoderod55 · 61-69, M
Few years back used to do it . Out by 3;00 am . Breakfast at mc donalds 😁
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@anoderod55 I definitely remember those days. ☹ My wife and I use to just go to the Mall to walk and window shop. We still have one really nice Mall here. The rest are almost empty.
anoderod55 · 61-69, M
@Musicman Ours are too . Mainly on line these days 😲 Miss the smells and sights of some of the Holiday stores .
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@anoderod55 I do too. Back in Virginia, where we are from, the Malls are still thriving. One in particular, Fair Oaks, use to really go all out on the decorations.
No way! I admit I brought nothing 😅
TexChik · F
No, but I was in my deer blind at 4:30 AM.
Lilnonames · F
I've never gone probably never will
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Lilnonames I only went once and that's because the wife and I were at a party and the stores were just opening as we were driving home so we decided to stop just to say we had done it one time. Lol!!!
Back in 2006 my late ex fiancee wanted me to pick up a few things after I got off work at 6am, I got to the store at 6:30am, every shelf was picked clean and every register was at least 150 shoppers deep.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@NativePortlander1970 Ah, the good old days. 😂😂😂
