Well, we sure took a shot at it! We woke up very early this morning (earlier than seminary students, we'll just say that) to head to Virginia Beach for some shopping. Due to the early wake up time, I did not grab the camera to come along. We mostly were interested in the DVD deals they had going on.
Walmart was our first stop. It was a ZOO (only about 100x worse)! I am SO glad they price matched the ads. It helped us skip a store in our line-up. The hard part was finding all the DVD's.
Next stop, Target. They weren't open yet, so we waited around for about 10-15 minutes, then followed the HUGE line inside. We picked up more DVD's and a few luxuries.
Then, off to Bed Bath and Beyond! I had a coupon for $10 off $30 or more. We got a much needed kitchen accessory and used the coupon. I got it for $20!! Yipee!
Off to what wasn't planned as our last stop, but was.... Haynes. After the demise of our mattress set when we moved to our current home (LONG story) Jeremiah and I haven't been sleeping as comfortably in our bed. So, we took the plunge and bought a new set today (the first set we've purchased - we were blessed to get a bed and mattress set handed down from family when we were married). We even got to take it home with us today too! Already we have taken the opportunity to have a short nap on it, and it is WONDERFUL! I dare say it will be a very good choice.
As a side note, the girls came along with us this morning and were SUPERB!!! I couldn't have asked for more well-behaved children!
I seem to get so excited about Black Friday that it has rubbed off on Jeremiah a bit too. We have big plans for next years' big shopping day. WATCH OUT EARLY RISERS!!!

i did it once, but was so happy to be in my bed this morning:) it can be a ton of fun, though!
i'm seriously impressed got up early and went shopping. I think I'll just stick to doing the later sales :-)
But hey, i do remember, Virginia Beach has some good shopping...or at least it used to.
Goooooo Janice! I'm jealous of the new mattress set. Our sorry mattress sags in the middle, so we end up in a befuddled pile. We'll get that new mattress set....someday. just add it to the list:).
I was up at 5am to go across to buy some material for Christmas presents at Joanns. It wasn't too bad, I thought that it would be worse. I am really looking forward to being able to go again next year! I was not brave enough to wait for hours in the lines outside the KMart and WalMart though, they were LONG!!
Yep - I've got the bad hand me down mattress set too! I'm hoping in the next year to replace it. I'm happy for you!
Wow! Way to go! I was not that brave. I slept away in my cozy bed. So, I too want to replace my mattress (and ENTIRE bedroom set!) but everytime I mention it, Shawn says "oh it's so much more comfy than my bed on the ship". No kidding. It might take a serious moving incident to convince my hero that we NEEEEED a new mattress.
Hey, to answer your question about where I enroll him, I did it at our community rec center. They have tons a programs for little kids. I dont know if you have something like that out there!
Did the early thing once. Never again :) Glad you got good deals though-that is always exciting! Happy everything this month! December is a big month for ya! I know D hates May because it's our anniversary, mothers day, & my b-day! I love it!
