I'll be there at when it opens .. this is when I stock up on my quilt battings for the whole year . They are 50% off plus the coupon gives you another 20 percent. This makes it worthit for me. With cotton prices going up ... I may get two years worth.
I just tuck my PJ's into my pants ... throw on my coat. I head straight for the battings ... and right to the check out. I am usually back in bed by 6:45 AM

I don't push and shove, and last year, at sears, when the pushing and shoving started, i sorta hid in women's underwear until the madness died down. lost out on a couple of deals, and took me a while to find the bf again, but at least i wasn't hurt!

=) It also helps to go in with a smile-ly, shiny attitude, it disarms those mean crazies.

Are we related? I could have written that!

Thank you, I got a coupon from BBandBeyond today, so we may drive to Evansville this weekend. Guess I could call first to see if they have one in stock.

Hilarious! They're having a pajama party and don't even know it! I love it! You go girl!

Sounds like my kind of shopper. I know I'm not showering first, but I hadn't thought about wearing my jammies.

Yea that is a good price but the extra cost is when you have to buy the dies that go with it, that's where they make up for the lost money on the sale. If you don't watch this carefully you will actually spend more in the long run.

If they even have those items anyway!
