I feel that walmart, best buy, and macys usually has some great deals on Black Friday. I got a really nice flat screen television at walmart for one a hundred dollars. It was a 32 inch so it was pretty sweet  :thumbsup:. The thing is that you have to wake up so early in order to get the best deals. People go crazy on Black Friday and wipe stores clean.

Never been shopping on Black Friday - never will.  As for shoppers cleaning out stores, I kinda suspect the merchants really love that.  And please, people, be careful.  Watch out for those deadly doors.

Ehhh I won't, it gets to crowded and lines get way to long.  I don't know of any stores that won't be full that I might like to got to.

 I am not a big fan of jumping through any retailers hoops just to get a good deal on something;  they can keep it because I don't need anything that badly. lol. I've never shopped on black Friday ever, and events in recent years like the maniacal shoppers who trampled an employee to death with no remorse except over the inconvenience it caused them only serves to confirm my convictions not to ever shop on that day.

I'm going to shop online.  Probably buy some games for friends off steam, and see if there's anything good on newegg and other sites.

No where. I know there is some good bargains, but there really isn't anything worth losing sleep over or standing in line for.

Best way to shop is online shopping.  That is where I do all my shopping including my groceries.  I actually found a grocery store that will deliver for free.

Shopping after Thanksgiving use to be an annual thing for me until I  got married and started afamily, I realized that I needed to start shopping year round when I found things on sale. :icon_rr:

      Be careful! Some stores will try to sell you something you do not want or need.

Black Friday shopping is ok if you stick to the sales, otherwise you might end up buying a bunch of stuff that is way to expensive.

I have no intention of shopping starting early on Thanksgiving evening or all day Friday.  I hate crowds as a general rule and I don't think the stores should open on Thanksgiving anyway.

I haven't been shopping on black friday in several years.  I don't know if I am going to try to brave it and do it this year or no...People get way too crazy on Black Friday!!!

I won't shop until I get paid again and that won't be until the first Wednesday of December.

Since I like pay pal, I will buy items online via paypal.

I'm shopping online even though I'm sure I will still have issues competing with people. Brick and mortars are probably out of the question as the last number of times I went I couldn't get anything and the stories I hear of people being trampled to death or pulling each other's hair scares me.

My Christmas list is very short and mostly filled already.  I will be staying far away from the Black Friday madness.  I've never liked it and now they're starting earlier than ever.  :dontknow:  Too crazy for me.

Good luck to all who brave the crowds.

Bwoy the economy is really bad. I thinks that i will give shopping a break this year. I think that I will save my pennies for a rainy day. The most I will do is buy food.

Black Friday is intense. I had my first experience last year at Wal mart, and that was actually Thanksgiving night! This year I'm planning on hitting up Target and Kohl's in addition to Wal mart again tonight.

I am not going shoppine on black friday. Have been onthe other end of it, Was in sales for a long time and it was awful. Once in putting up a sales display i was knocked over and a lard ###  stepped on my hand and bruised it badly. Had to get it x-ryed my boss thought it was broken. No way Jose i am staying away.

I've never gone shopping on Black Friday before, but I'm considering hitting Target this year for their deals on DVDs, although not for gifts. I do have an extra incentive to go shopping this year: I picked up a shift to work at 2 am, so I'll be up anyway. All the other Black Friday deals I'm interested in are actually running weekend, so I'll get to miss the worst of the crowds. Good luck to everyone who will be braving the crowds!

I went to Walmart. My sister-in-law showed me how to make jewelry and I decided that I wanted to do it my self, so we went to Walmart to buy the things I needed to get started. There was not an empty space in the parking lot. We had to park at the church across the street and walk over. We got what I needed and we waited in the check out line for at least 45 minutes. It was croweded, We got out okay though. Hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving.

I follow a couple of bloggers who post really good deals!  I have done, did today, and will continue to do my shopping online for less than going into the stores!  And I already did Santa photos this week, so I will hopefully not have to fight crowds at all!

If I do do any Black Friday shopping, it will most likely be online. Being out when it is crowded gives me HIVES!

I am not sure where the people get all their money for black fridays.  I cannot imagine that all these people have saved up for the whole year.  Maybe some but not all those people.  One toy store here had over 500 people in line at 6 pm  the store did not open till midnight.  Not for me I guess.

I try never to even leave my house on Black Friday.   I don't think the sales are worth the crowds  - or the rudness that the holidays bring out in people.

I am not going anywhere for Friday.  The last time I went to wal-mart people where fighting to get the deals and they (wal-Mart) never have a enough to go around so I guess that is why the crowd get mean.  To me holidays are supose to be a time for cheer and loving one another but now it is all about greed and I am not putting myself in the middle just to get a few dollar savings.
