No Black Friday shopping for me....never have but maybe once or twice way back when kids were little. I was just looking at the Black Friday Fabric Specials on-line and don't even have the patience to look through 7 pages of deals on fabric.com. I'm still working on my huge stash, and don't know exactly what I really need, so I may just buy nothing. This has been an expensive year for me too, dog requiring knee surgery on 2nd knee, then rehab for that for 3 months, dental work for me, had to have part of my yard fenced in because of unruly neighbor dogs, and on and on it goes.

Easy question to answer. A resounding no.

we are just staying in the house for the next few days. we don't even want to be on the roads with the crazies driving from one store to another. we have plenty of food and toilet paper. and fabric, of course. so, we're good!

The only times I braved the crowds was when my mom asked me to shop for a specific toy or gift for her small GGD. Now I may go to Hancock's about 10 miles away sometime this morning, but that's all.

i wouldnt go to the stores if they paid me. i believe a holiday is a holiday and no one should work. so to go to the stores at midnight or 2:00 a.m. is craziness. there is nothing in the world i need to badly that i have to stand on line for hours to get. cant tell me whatever you're looking for you cant find after thanksgiving. not saying you won't pay more, but my time has to be worth something. so the answer is no. no black friday, cyber this, small business that.

No, no and no. We might go up the road a few miles to get a bag of oranges (BOGO). Maybe stop somewhere for lunch. That's it.

Nope, I do not get into the whole Black Friday insanity! I did buy a few items on Amazon's Black Friday deals, but, other than that, I will stay faaar away from the stores this weekend.
