I love Black Friday
Ever since Ben and I were married we have went Early morning shopping the day after Thanksgiving. The first year we went, we started at Best Buy for a 10.00 Aladdin DVD. The people in line thought that we were crazy, wake up that early for a DVD. But every year I get so excited. We slowly over the years recruited others to join us, and always have such a fun time. This year was a little bit different, I found out the I had to babysit on Friday, and that they were dropping them off at 7:30am. ( How much shopping can I get done in such a short amount of time?) Also nobody was going to go with us. We planned a little better, making lists and planning just where we would go and how much time we had at each store. When we went to bed at mid- night and set our alarm for 3:00 am, I had my doubts that Ben would get up. But he is awesome and got up. We got to the first store about 3:45 and were home by 7:00 am. We got the girls and hit one more store. We had such a fun Thanksgiving week-end. Ben's family was here from New Mexico and we always have so much fun with them. We have been trying to catch up on our sleep, and poor Ben got a terrible cold. So thanks babe, for keeping the tradition alive. Next year we expect to have everyone there again.

at least you guys sound like you have fun while you're being insane!! :) last year my ben went out & got a great deal on a t.v. while i stayed tucked in bed. maybe someday i can be convinced to go, my sister loves it!
you guys are crazy! I would much rather pay full price! I am very cheap but 3 am...wow!
I found out that the Park City Outlets open at midnight. Why sleep till 3am when you can pull an all nighter?!? I love your traditions. Keep it alive.
I agree. You guys are nuts! My wife got me to go out but I think we left home at about 11:00 AM, hit one store (Wal-Mart) and then spent the rest of the day on a date.
