Black Friday

4am sales called my name on Thursday night. They always do. My mom, my sister, and I always look through all the adds in the paper and figure out where we will go the next morning. However this year was different. My sister had to work, bummer, so she didn't get to go early with us. My mom and I went early, but then she had to go to work. Our first stop was Belk, the line was all the way down the sidewalk, it was crazy. Although I guess with the amazing sale they had on boots and shoes who couldn't resist? My goal: to get sperrys for 50% off and boots for $19.99. Unfortunately I was out of luck. I didn't get anything I came for. The smallest size sperrys they had were size 6 and I needed a 5 1/2, that was disappointing. And the boots well they were all gone in about 10 minutes, and again my size was not there. Having such small feet makes it hard to find shoes...

I did get some fabulous rings for 60% off though, and a ring and earrings for my grandmother for Christmas. (one person got checked off my list!). We did get a mystery gift-card at the door on the way in. People were fighting to get them. There were several people who tried to cut in line, people were pushing and arguing about who was there and who wasn't. It was out of control. Some of the gift-cards had $500, some $100. A couple of people got gift-cards with $100 while we were in there, ours were only $5. Oh well. $5 is $5!! Although the lady did hand me one at the door then say "wait, your 18 right?!" Lady, try 25!! I know I look young, but not that young!

Our next stop was Khol's, we were late on that one, didn't realize they opened at 3am and not 4am so the line was wrapped around inside the entire store twice. Nothing was worth waiting for in that line so we skipped out. Then we went to Target and Sam's for some things, then decided to fuel up with some breakfast and coffee. We stopped at Starbucks then went to Chick-fil-a! It was about time to head home so mom could head to work and I needed to take my car to the dealership to get fixed. So my dad and I dropped off my car and then he took me to Victoria's Secret and The Loft. Both at which I got some fabulous finds! So excited!

I headed home to take a nap until my sister got off of work so we could head to the mall. They called about my car, $680 to fix it!! So there would be no more shopping for me! Met my sister at work and to the mall we went. It was crazy there too! Traffic was awful and the parking lot was packed! She got a few things, I bought a dress for new year's (totally shouldn't have though...but I splurged anyways, it was 40% off and fabulous!) My sister did more damage than me, but I did just go because I said I would. By the end of the day I was exhausted!!

Gonna check sales online for cyber Monday, and maybe I can get the rest of my Christmas shopping done. We'll see.

Love ya,
Maggie
