Amandaaa, where in WI? Wasn't Prime Outlets was it? I was there, didn't do the line for the gift bags though...STUPID long! I shopped for about 2 hours, got home at 2:30...and Mom woke me up at 8:30 to go shop more. I was a Grumpy Gus by the time we got home! Luckily my fam realized that I was running on NO SLEEPS and had mercy on my grouchy soul.

Black Friday madness is just that--MADNESS. I want nothing to do with it. Unless it's some online shopping, of course!

Wow, amandaaa! :) I wish I was organized enough to already be done with my shopping. I know I'm going to probably be out there on Christmas Eve trying to finish.

i hate it and love it. i wonder, "WHY am i doing this to myself?" i left my home at 11pm, was in crazy ridiculous traffic for two hours with my gas tank on empty. went to that outlet mall, then another 20 minutes north, hit up another one just east, then another one. a few hours later, headed up to wisconsin for another outlet mall. craziest black friday ever, and i loved it. my shopping is all done!

I am all for online this year - the frustration is just not worth it for me this year...I am too tired and worn out for all that.

yay for online! that, and going at like noon instead of at 4 a.m. I just got back, and I didn't go until after 12, and I still found great stuff...

i went at 5:45... and i was late! the parking lot was packed. but the sales at the places that were advertising were not that great. i def. got some bargins but nothing actually worth getting up that early for. however, even though it was "crowded" even early it was nothing compared to how crazy it was around 10 am... i tried to go into a mall and left in less than 30 min. that was NOT worth it! i cant stand crowds and lines so my usually holiday season M.O. is to hit the stores later on a night, b.c i have found that even though stores stay open until 11-12 at night they are often pretty quiet, esp. if you can go on a week night!

Ugh, we tried but the line to get into the South Coast Plaza parking lot backed up all the way to the freeway exit so we just bailed. It's ridiculous.

I had to wake up at 2:30am to work. Yikes, America is crazy about great deals.

I heat it I did it once and was so disapointed, the sells were not as big as I expect it,and could not find anything that I liked.

I am into it. But I also work retail. Only from 2-7 so I can have time to shop a bit before!
