Jane, I am with you on that one. I hate to shop. I even hate grocery shopping. I make a list and get whats on it and I am in and out of the store in 15 to 20 mintues. I do most shopping online for Christmas if I can.

Yea, I have always shopped the day after Thanksgiving but with the internet at hand and no lines I may set it out this year. They are lots of good deals out there but I think most of the stores offer low prices online for a few days around Black Friday. I remember last year Circuit City and Best Buy had some really great deals online. So, Its worth checking out anyway. I waited in line for almost 2 hrs last year for the Wii, I got it and the kids were very happy. I don't think anything like that is on their list this year thank goodness.

Ahhhhh Black Friday........no way in hell am I going out in that mad house. I usually and i say usually losely, I start in August and have it done by October. Well........not this year. I have started in Aug but not even half done. Online shopping is my best friend and I can do it with fresh coffee in hand, in my pj's and I have a bathroom close if in need........so why fight crowds and traffic? Well, this year the kids want big ticket items and they are only getting a few things so it's easy. Husband is the hard one to shop for......what do you get????

Jen, good luck w/the Christmas shopping. Why don't you get your husband something that you could use That would be a great gift.
Don't forget how many days til Christmas:

I can't get him something I want..........I'm getting the camera remember I will need to find out if he wants/needs anything for his personal gear at the fire deparment. Other than that I can't buy for his motorcycle because I don't know exactly what he want and If I pick that out I'm almost guaranteed to be the wrong part so I must search. Each year it gets harder and harder.............
