I started a riot at Walmart this am...

We decided to go shopping on Black Friday...not really "needing" anything special...just wanted to go and if we could get a good deal on some Christmas presents...we'd be happy.  I woke up at 2:30am and met the others at 3am at Walmart.  There were a few people there, but not many.  As we walked around and found the things we wanted to buy- the Walmart employees were sure that no one got the stuff on sale until exactly 5am.  They were manning their areas.  We stalked the things we wanted and then 4 am came...we seperated and went to our desired items.  My aisle was empty so I sat in a chair and watched a movie on a flat screen tv for about 20 mins.  The girls stood by electronics and the big screen tvs.  About 4:15am the store began to flood with people.  There were no empty shopping carts to be had.  But..my aisle was still empty...About 4:30am people were eyeing my desired items.  I stood by them to ensure I got the color I wanted. 

One minute until 5am...I grabbed the comforter set I wanted and ran like a mad woman to the next item that I'd had my eye on.  A riot ensued....everyone near the comforters wanted one as well...they began to grab them and the employees went crazy yelling and beating people down...but I had made it far far away from the riot (the comforter was marked down from $69 to $35 and it matched my bedroom walls perfectly!)....I headed over to the deal on tupperwear sets and then over to toys!  I got some amazing bargains on stuff I was already going to buy the kids anyways!! 

I got some 3pc clothing sets for only $4 for the kids for next year and winter jackets for $8 for the next 2 years.  What a deal!  Will I do it again for those kind of deals?  Heck yeah!  image

  • Ok, might be late...daniel's fam first

    No clue on what Addy's wearing- Tyler is easier. 

    I'm thinking she might wear the dress she wore last year- sad to say it's 18 mos...she was so chunky in her arms!  Not the black and white one that you guys saw, but the one with the burgundy on top and white on bottom with embro. flowers on bottom...if it fits that is!

  • Did you hear about the Walmart employee in RI who was killed when the crazy people stormed the doors? It's not that big of a sale that people needed to riot like that. I'm glad you got out of it unhurt :)
