Never, never again!

In my last post,I wrote about us going to the Black Friday Sale for a freezer chest and a TV. What can I say, never again! This was our first and last time we did something like that. Now I know what crazy means.
We went at 10 p.m. to Walmart, that was the first mistake, because we thought we could save $10 on our freezer, ha. We parked 5 blocks away and had no idea how we would haul that thing from the store to the car, but we didn't even have a chance to buy it. We went into the store and about fell on our butts, we have never seen so many people in one store and you know Walmart is big, they just packed them in there, you couldn't even go through the isles, they had them roped off, people were standing in the electronic department and waiting until midnight for the sale and there was the lines just for paying. We would have to stand with everyone else just to get the ticket for that item, we ran around for 15 minutes just to find the end of the line so we can stand in line to pay, some people even got nasty and told us not to cut in, we did not, we had to go through just to find the end. We had it, we said, the heck of it and left, it was not worth it to stand in line for 3 hours just for paying, we went home and sat on the couch and tried to get in a small snooze just to get up at 3 in the morning and to go to our local Bi-Mart and buy the 46" LED LCD flatscreen TV and it was great, we got to the parking lot at 3:20 and nobody was there, we even beat the employees of that store, we were all mummed up in blankets and waited until the store opened at 5 and we had




victory, we were the lucky ones, they had only 10 TV's and we took one home. Merry Christmas to us! Last weeks table display from the craftshow!

  1. Your things are darling! A sale like that is not really a sale when it costs you so much time and effort, not to mention the migrane afterward! I don't bother with trying to shop the Black Friday sales. It is a lesson learned and you did end up with a tv!
