I hear ya about the bottom of the line machine that you just love to pieces! I don't even like the thought of getting a new machine as much as I should simply because I know the machine I have now would get "abandoned"! I have a Brother Xl2600i my dad got it for me for Christmas the year my husband was in bootcamp so I would have something to do. In other words I was living with him and he wanted some stuff made! lol I think he paid about 100 bucks (AT MOST) for it from walmart! It doesn't do much, and it has a SUPER tiny throat space but I love that stupid thing! lol I have been sewing on it for four years and it has never "hiccuped" even once!

I miss the "Deer Lonely Ladies" day sales they used to have here in Pennasylvania. So many men went out hunting the first day of deer season they had special sales for the ladies. The first day of antlered deer season is always the first Monday after Thanksgiving.

from what I have found they usually have free shipping on black friday. or just google the store name and coupon code it will pop up with coupon codes for the store you want. I never buy anything on line without a coupon code and I HAVE to buy everything on line including groceries. So just an example would be joanns fabric free shipping code or joanns fabric coupon code or joanns promo code. I do it everyway to see what is the best coupon to use.

In the defence of the poor clerk that has most likely been standing there without her breaks like she is soposed to get them an started out at 5:00 in the morning that is at thestore.an you know there are some people whole arn't very nice on that day or thanksgiving day sales either.I'm here to let you know think about it before you get all upset with her or him.Because who knows how long they have been standing there.I just happened to be that poor lady that was catching more h--- than she deserved for about 8 yrs straight.I'd be up by about
4:00an shower an all an at work to fight to get in door so I could do my job.

I went 2 times. Once because the Navy Exchange had glider rockers for $88 and it included the foot rest. We were 2d in line and the store only had 4 of them. We were buying 2 and the people in front of us were getting 2. There was a line of about 100 people, all wanting the rockers. The store ONLY had the 4 and weren't getting any more in. What a fiasco!
Then, went with the oldest. Didn't want to go, but told her I'd be a good Mom and go with her. Took us 40 min to find a place to park. We walked in the store, walked around for about 10 min and then went back home.

There's nothing out there with those crazy crowds that I'm going to risk my life for.

Quick story....one year the Navy Exchange on Black Friday was selling Coach purses for 25% off. They are already discounted down about 15%, so another 25% off is a good price. These animals and yes, animals, were pushing and shoving for them! One lady who owned one, had it in her cart, turned her back for a min and found ALL her belongings dumped in her cart and the purse missing! Nope, no thank you! I'm not a purse person and I can find something better to spend $200 on instead of a purse!

My granddaugter loves Black Friday. She has been going with me since she was six. We don't have a list. The bigger stores here, the crowds aren't that big so it's not a wild free for all. I do my Christmas shopping for family online, 95% of it from Amazon.
