Black Friday

Some of you might remember from last year that I am a big Black Friday shopper. I love checking out the ads early and planning what I'm going to get. I don't mind standing in line and love finding the perfect gift for an oh so low price.

Last year my big find was a power wheel jeep for Palmer for less than half the original price. He loved it and still rides it everywhere.

This year we don't have any family coming in to town and of course Bret has to work on Friday. In the past when this happened I just picked my top store and was in and back home before he had to leave for work. Worse case scenario I can do the same again this year. The first big ad leak of the year was posted recently (Sears) and new ones should be coming out every day until Thanksgiving. Although there are lots of sights that offer information about Black Friday my favorite is www.blackfriday.info They have an email subscription which notifies you as soon as the ad is posted. This is a fantastic feature b/c a lot of times the good ads will only be up a very short time before lawyers start issuing stop orders and force the site to take down the ads. Only 30 days until Black Friday!
