I did black Friday once. Never again! When I go to get the gift cards I’m going to give I go in on Monday morning, get my cards and get the heck out of the store. I don’t like to shop and hate large crowds.

you'll be missing the 37" TV for $1 @ Wal-Mart.

That is a dollar poorer I will be for something I have no use fore. I haven't had a TV since 1988.
