I heard about that and read an article as well.

I went to Target around 9 that morning only to get some DVDs for my brother who informed me after the fact that he would rather have CDs. His biggest gift this year is a computer that I won in a raffle at work. I just have to ship that bad boy to him.

In Charlotte, we have Concord Mills (outlet mall) that opened at midnight Thanksgiving night. I believe another mall opened here as well that night. Folks got stampeded and all of that foolishness.

I am always surprised when people do that. I shouldn't be, though. My mother told me that she almost had to engage in fisticuffs with a chick over my cabbage patch doll back in the day.

A lot of those computers didn't even have Windows and a few other programs.

I was up at 4am with my sister waiting in line at Walmart and Best Buy. They had digital cameras and portable DVD players on sale. I picked up quite a few DVDS that were on sale for $1.88 and $3.44. By 10am I was pretty much done with all my Christmas shopping.

Yeah, I picked up a couple of those DVDs and the flat screen that was on sale for like...$65, give or take. Most of my shopping was completed online.

That's way cheaper than Target's sale. I only purchased 3 and 2 of them are going back, lol.

I wanted to get up early and stay in line but I couldn't do it this year. I did however manage to get a Digital Camcorder for hubby at Bestbuy for a decent price. Or at least what I thought was a decent price.
