So we braved the stores today, I even got up at 4:30. There weren't many cars on the highway so I thought it would be an easy morning and I was dreaming of all the deals I could get, with my notes of what stores to hit in hand. As I turned into the Best Buy parking lot my dreams of deals turned into nightmares. I have never seen that parking lot so full, and the people were like ants on a hot fudge cake on the sidewalk. All the big items I was looking for gone, people had camped out to get them, so we got two DVD's and got in line which snaked through section after section from the back of the store all the way to the front. My wife waited in line while I went to Circuit City to find the lines not as long but twice as slow, luckily I found a cashier who was just opening and had no line yet. Then I met my wife a Target, the Family Christian book store and then the mall and finally Walmart. Here is what we were able to get:
Cat in the Hat DVD - 2.99
Big Fish DVD - 2.99
Groundhog day DVD - 2.99
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory - 3.99
Larryboy and the Bad Apple - 5
Story of Jesus children's Bible - 5
Skillet CD - 7.97
bold plus 25% off
Simpsons Season 8 - 16
SD 1GB memory card - 2.99
Wagon radio flyer- 50 normally 70
We got some good deals, but wow what a hectic morning going from store to store and wading through the sea of people at each store. Our baby got the best of it with her new wagon, and we didn't get any of the big ticket items we might have wanted, but it's ok were still blessed and thankful for all we have. Have a wonderful Sabbath.
