This morning we managed to make it out to some of the "black friday" sales going on at all the stores here in Dallas. The only stores on our list were Best Buy and Fry's, but we ended up going to Circuit City because we were right there by it after going to Best Buy.
We didn't make off with any blistering deals like we have in previous years, but we didn't come away empty handed. I picked up a few mp3 players to try to sell on Ebay, and we also got two hard drives for personal use.
All in all, we did well. Noone cried. Noone was mugged or kidnapped, and there were only two minor arguments between Taylor and myself (he's mispelling our grandma's nickname and telling me I'm wrong... even though everyone else spells it differently, and have spelled it this way since before he was born). The stores were insane though, especially Best Buy, where they promote certain sales until 12 o'clock.
Now, I don't have much left to buy for other people for Christmas, and I get to spend the rest of the weekend with the family without worrying about everyone getting out and finding the deals they were hunting.
