I avoid Black Friday like the plague. I hate crowds. I hate rudeness. I hate being rushed. I’d much rather spend more to shop at my leisure than fight a bunch of obnoxious people looking for deals and behaving like there was a natural disaster that was imminent.

I’m a Cyber Monday Girl.

I want to do Black Friday early morning, but hubby is off work and will want to go to, and he’ll want to sleep in that day because on work days he has to leave the house at 5am.

agreed! Shopping online is the way to go for me, too. No way I’d stand in line at 4 AM…I worked at a Best Buy on Black Friday once…madness. Saw 2 women fight over a DVD player…

I don’t plan on going out Friday, either… I have a hard enough time walking in stores on a regular day, and bringing my wheelchair on Black Friday would just be suicide. Unless I find the camera that I want at an outstanding price – NOPE, I’m stayin’ home!!
I do most of my shopping online anyway, so I can’t wait for Cyber Monday!!

Only one time did I get up early for a Black Friday special, and found myself standing outside in a huge line of people enduring single digit temperatures in the pitch dark. Not fun.

Plus, I’m just too exhausted now from my 10 month old to get up and deal with Black Friday. And have you looked at the ads? There’s nothing that I really want bad enough to get up that early. My mom, sister and I used to do Black Friday every year when I was younger. I’m over it. Hello Cyber Monday. Shopping in my jammies!

I do go out, but usually to a factory outlet center about 100 miles away from my home….it is usually really crowded, but you can get really good deals…they have an Old Navy, a Gap, Osh-Kosh, Carters, and over 100 others. You are already getting great deals there and then add Black Friday deals and it is amazing. I think that I want to try to go to my Walmart this year, but I am undecided.

I don’t ever shop Black Friday, but I do hit up all of the day after Christmas sales, for good bargains on Christmas decor and gift wrap for the following year. It’s much less stressful than the day after Thanksgiving, and seems to be safer too!
