Black Friday Countdown

As Thanksgiving approaches, we all think about the most important shopping day of the year....(try to contain your excitement) - BLACK FRIDAY! I spend my days trying to find the best deals out there. Most of the popular stores have released their advertisements. I've checked almost all of them; just downloaded a Black Friday App for my Iphone - they really make apps for everything these days! None the less I've compiled a list of what I'm going for - mostly toys. I'm sharing a few with this post. As I find more, I'll be blogging them!

Toys R Us is opening up at 9:00 pm on Thanksgiving Day, which is AWESOME! I plan to be in line, ready to fight the crowds around 8:00, or maybe 7:30 - depends on what Donna Kay's in the mood for! Ha! I've found some good things for Lexi at Toys R Us, some of which include a Leapfrog Leapster 2 (Pink) for only $24.99 - they also have a big discount for all of the accompanying games. There's also this bouncing colors turtle ride along that's only $14.99 - mind you, this summer it was $80 - glad I didn't get it then! All of the Disney Princess dolls are also on sale for half off - can't beat that! And my favorite toy of the season......LET'S ROCK ELMO - They're selling a bundle for $50, which is awesome considering Elmo by himself right now averages at $50.

As far as things I like for myself, hello Old Navy! They are actually opening up during the day on Thanksgiving Day from 8am - 9pm. Then they're reopening up at midnight. Hurry up and get there before midnight because guess what?! - they're giving out wristbands to the first 100 customers (in line)to redeem Kodak camera bundles. I WANT ONE - they're actually giving away waterproof cameras and all types of coupons in the package. Now if you don't make it out in time, they're still lots of fun stuff on sale. They're having the CUTEST pea coats (for adults) for only $29. They're originally $80 so that's a great savings! Kids jeans are on sale for $10, and adults for $15. They also have scarves on sale for practically free!

If you're looking for some good electronics, head on over to BestBuy. They open at midnight, and have nice laptops on sale for $179. They also have blue ray players for $39. If you need a tv, then they're the best place to go as they have 42 inch televisions on sale for $199!

Walmart is opening its doors at 10 PM on Thanksgiving day, but won't allow you to get it's electronics deals until midnight. Some things that poke out to me at Wal Mart, are the X Box Kinect, and controller with a $50 gift card for only $199.99. They also have BlueRay's on special for $49.99. As far as stuff I actually want, they have a lot of their kitchen appliances marked down.  They have a double waffle iron for $2.84 and a Hamilton Beach 6 speed hand stand mixer for only $18.92. Walmart didn't go crazy posting any of their toy specials, so I feel a bit let down :/ None the less, they'll probably have tons of discounts when we hit the store on November 25th!

The AAFES PX has its catalog out, but I've heard it's better to just go in and fight the crowds. I know the ipads are going to be uber cheap there!


I'm always scouting out a good deal, so if I find more bargains - I'll share them! <3 Ashley
