I have gone the past few years, but I am thinking about skipping it this year. I just don't think we really need anything. Unless there is something I see in the ads I absolutely have to have!!

I do not go anywhere on Black Friday except my local Target store. It is the only one in the area that is not "Super Target" so it is not busy. I usually pick up a handful of things and don't go until a reasonable time, like 2 pm. I don't like crowds and I don't like Christmas, so no, I don't really do Black Friday shopping.

No, I have never gone to a Black Friday sale in a store. Too crazy for me.   I mostly shop online and you can get great deals, on Cyber Monday and many other days too.

No, I don't. One year I shopped on Cyber Monday but I don't know how good the sales will be this year. Plus I am trying to watch how much money I spend this year until I get a better job, so I won't be spending like I usually do.

I stay home. I worked retail for 15 years and the black Friday shoppers were so rude and nasty I never want to be around it again. If I have to have something I will buy it now and then not  worry about it. Most sales are gimmicks anyway and they may only have a few in stock and they want you to take a rain check at a higher price if you can get it. A lot of companies only send a few on sale to each store. Just to get you in the door. Nope not for me.

I have went in the past but I won't go this year because I just got my first apartment and my funds are limited.

I go sometimes when I have the money to spend, but this year I doubt I am really going to have it, most of my shopping is being done on Amazon with gift certificates.

Not really. To not care for the crowds.

No but then I don't really "holiday" shop - There is only my two grown sons and myself now so if we want or need something during the year that we can afford we get it.  I don't know after my husband died we kind of lost the holiday spirit.  Last year my sons decorated the house to perk my spirits because I love lights but I doubt I even do that this year.  Well anyway, happy shopping whenever you go do it.  :present:

Nope! Did it once and it was super stressful and I'll admit, a little exhausting. Would rather sit home, slouch around, eat leftover turkey and watch sports...lol

No I dont usually do Black friday. dont like to deal with crowds, trying to find parking, and fight with other people that are going for discounted stuff.
