We woke
up at 4:30am Thursday morning to see if we could get the $97
TV. Well that of course didn’t happen. There was a line
down the street! This is crazy, it is Thanksgiving
morning!!! As we tried to get in the door, a woman banged her
shopping cart into my Achilles heel. Really woman, why do you have a shopping
cart in the line to get into the store…did you have injury me? Neither
one of us were getting the TV and we already knew this! ARGH! We picked up
some birthday presents for Evelyn. After that we drove past Best Buy to see if
there was a line and there was. This was 7:30am on Thanksgiving
Day! Seriously people! We went to Wal-Mart and got
kicked out. Well we got kicked out of the Christmas tree
area. We were looking at the Christmas trees in the garden center
and they happen to be storing all the TVs for the 10pm sale in there. Eric started
counting them and a very crabby Wal-Mart woman came back and said “what
are you doing here, you need to get out here, this is a restricted area.” Um we
are looking at Christmas trees and there is nothing saying this is a restricted
area. After she bitched us out she put the restricted sign
up. Stupid woman! After we got home from that we took
Michael to Starbucks.
Thanksgiving
dinner was great. The whole family was there. It was
great. Soon after dinner Juliette, Eric and I started our Black
Friday Shopping. We started at Wal-Mart. We got in the really
long line for the 32” TV. The one that they guarantee would be in
stock for an hour. I left Eric and Juliette in the line and I went
looking for a present for mom. While I was walking around a woman
with skunk hair did a double hit to my Achilles heel with her shopping
cart. That is 3 times today my Achilles heel has taken a
hit. Good news is we got the TV and got out of
there. After that we went to Best Buy. We saw the line
and decided it wasn’t worth it. It was out the front door, around
the side of the building around the back wall. Wow! So we went to
Starbucks (trip #2 of the day) at the Hy-Vee store, we got there just
in time because they closed at 11:55pm. We went to Target and it was
dead. They had been open for 3 hours already and you could tell it
must have been busy at 9pm because the place looked like it had been
trampled. We went back to Best Buy but the line was still really
long and the store had been open for over 15 minutes so we decided it wasn’t
worth it. We went to Kohl’s and the checkout lines were ridiculously
long so we just went home.
Yesterday
Eric, Juliette, Adam and I went to Kohl’s and Best Buy to pick up the things we
decided weren’t important the night before. We made another stop at
Starbucks and went to spend time with Chris and Leilani. Eric
and Chris watched the Nebraska game. When it was done they went to
Starbucks. Juliette, Morgan and I went to Panera Bread and
eventually made our way back to Chris' house. We had some quality family
time by watching Maury and then Juliette, Morgan and I went to Victoria
Secrets, Bath and Body Works and Claire's. Morgan was so excited to go to
Victoria Secrets. We spent the whole night at Chris' house and got back to
Bonnie’s around 11pm. It has been a very busy holiday week.
