I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for Thanksgiving, of course.
Yesterday I was in the kitchen cooking from about 7:30am to 1pm, when we ate. All the food turned out tasty (thank goodness) and it was nice having our families over. Afterward, we rested for a couple hours, ate dessert, and everyone left by about 6pm.
This morning my plan was to be out of the house by about 6:30 to check out the sales. This year was the first year our stores started opening way before 5am. Walmart, for instance, opened at 12am, and other stores were opening at 3am and 4am. I really thought I would have no chance of getting anything good. At least when they open at 5am, I miss the big rush and can still find a few things two hours later. So my hopes were not high.
BUT, I was still going to get out, regardless...and it was worth it!! I was out of the house by 6:15 (although I did wake up at 3am and really thought about going that early...I went back to bed though). I did find most of what I wanted to get, minus a couple things like Blu Rays and DS Games that went on sale at 12am. Those got snatched up quick!
So what did I get? I got the usual $5 Barbie, $6 jumbo playdoh pack, and $4 pj's at Walmart. Not essentials but nice extras under the tree. I was able to pick up one $9.99 Tinkerbell DS game at Gamestop. Thankfully most of the people who shop there are not looking for Tinkerbell. ;o)
When we had our wood floors installed I had looked at them and they were pretty expensive, so I passed. I have used it today already and LOVE it!!! I am so excited! I'll be vacuuming all my floors tomorrow and steam mopping them. :o) Oh, and the rest of the crew are out right now buying ingredients to make waffles for dinner. It was two against one for waffles vs leftovers from yesterday. I lost.
So, did anyone else get out today and get any good buys? If so, let me know what you scored!
