The Best Laid Plans
Well I had a reasonably successful Black Friday and yet completely frustrating. Although I had planned to go to five stores ,I only made it to two because neither one was ready for the onslaught of customers. I was in Warner Robins, Ga visiting family for Thanksgiving so I went out on Friday morning at 4AM with my brother-in-law. We went to Circuit City first and he scored a 46 and 32 inch television. This took so long I had to abandon him there and head to Staples. At staples I got a GPS, some PC memory, and a cool pad for my wife’s laptop. By the time I got out of Staples, which opened at 6AM and picked up my brother-in-law at CC it was 8:30 so we went home and played with our new toys and forgot about the smaller items on my hit list. Did anyone take a shot at Black Friday and come out ahead?

We live in a town that is just big enough to have all the major box stores without too many people showing up to compete for stuff. I made it to 4 stores before they opened.
