Yes. This is why there is no sales tax on Amazon.

We couldn't find any deals to go out for super early, so we left around 7 and hit Dick's first where my mom got my brother a North Face jacket and golfballs- not on sale, but she did get a $25 gift certificate.

We then went about an hour away to the "good mall" where my mom got a bunch of small things (sweater for my aunt, wallet for my dad, some AE stuff for my brother, some stuff at Williams Sonoma). The only thing I bought was an SD card that I paid 7 bucks for (normally 30). Oh, and a laptop desk for the fiance that I got 50% off at Barnes & Noble with their sale+coupon. We ended the day at Wal-mart where we got the crockpot my aunt has been wanting for 50% off (a DOORBUSTER that was hiding in one of the aisle piles at 4 pm!). Oh, and a poinsettia for $3.59, lol.

No AMAZING deals, but successful none the less.
