Friday Steals!

FRIDAY
 {get it...it's 'black' and 'Friday'....I feel the need to have a photo or something with each post, so here ya go}

I ventured out for my second Black Friday extravaganza!  Things to note for next year if I decide to go at it again...Bigger, Warmer Coat, gloves, hat, hot cocoa, and gum! I was FREEZING!  Oh, and do NOT attempt to go alone!  We had a group of 5 of us to manage all the lines and such. 
Here was our schedule:
9:30pm arrived at Toys R Us and got in line {had someone there a hour ahead already saving a spot in line but we still had to wait until about another hour before actually getting into the store - too many people}
11:45pm arrived at Walmart and met up with our one hubby that tagged along to get a spot next to the Jeep Powerwheels I NEEDED for my boys.  12:01am was NUTS!  Since there were only 16 Jeeps at the store, boxes were literally flying, but I got one for my boys, and my friend got her girls' too! Score! 
1:45am arrived at Kohls.  We decided to divide and conquer here.  Kohls opened at 3am, but Target opened at 4am so one of my friends and I went to park our booties at Target and gave out lists to the Kohls bunch.  We took their lists and got in line around 2:30am.  Who does that?! 
4:00am walked into Target and got everything on our lists!!  I even got a Wii Fit Plus - thank you Santa!  
4:45am went back to Kohls to get my friend's car, then booked it to Game Stop by my house.
5:10am went to Game Stop to pick up 2 previously owned Nintendo DS game systems.  Good thing they had them because I got games at Walmart already.  
6:00am arrived home!  I had to hurry and hide all the loot because I have 1 early riser and needed to be done before he woke up!

All in all - a Success!  I wanted to post about my actual savings, but I am still recovering from sleep deprivation and can't count worth a hill of beans right now.  Let's just say, Christmas is about 85% finished and I couldn't be happier!  Plus it was loads of fun to go at it with friends! 

The only thing left on my list is a new racket for racquetball, and a Silhouette SD!  I am really hoping to win one of these from House of Hepworths, so fingers crossed because I have LOADS of ideas for that little baby!
