I went Thursday eve My DD has to work Friday so the earlier hours work for us. She is on a budget so BF is a blessing for her. WM let people go thru checkout early to avoid the big backup. We were out of there before 5 then on to Penny's and no big lines there either. We would not attempt 2 others as the lines to checking are normally better than an hour. Good deals and back home by 7. Life is good😋

My mom and sister and I used to go very early do loads of shopping by 11:00am or so and then head back home to have day after T-day turkey sandwiches but now all that is a memory, except for the turkey sandwiches! Now it's my day to decorate the house for Christmas. Way more fun and my wallet feels so much better!

There is nothing that I need anymore that warrants the BF crowds but I did go to the fabric stores today for flannel because it is really affordable today at the chain stores. The interesting thing is that the stores weren't crowded and the folks in them were saying that they haven't seen huge crowds anywhere today.... the nasty shopping was last night (Thanksgiving Thursday). I got in and out of the stores really quickly and got my excellent prices on flannel to make pillowcases to wrap presents in. Bring on the sewing time!
