    Hello Chicago bees!

    So I'm planning on going shopping on Black Friday, and I'm thinking of heading to Woodfield in Shaumburg. Last year we went, we left at like 5 a.m., so we beat the traffic. This year though, since the stuff I go shopping for doesn't require me to get there super early, I would prefer to leave around 7 a.m., which is rush hour. My husband doesn't seem to think traffic will be bad because not as many people have to work, but I'm still worried about it. Has anyone headed to Shaumburg on Black Friday? How was the traffic? I'm just wondering if it would be worth it to head over earlier just in case.

    Thanks, bees!

    I did once... You're a brave woman!! It's crazy! Traffic is still rough... parking is the big mess though. I think earlier is better. Don't forget to bring your hand sanitizer! :-) Good Luck!

    Chapstick, how did it go? I headed out to my parents house on Friday and passed Northbrook Court on my way. How in the world can they fit THAT many people in one mall???

    Oh man, Black Friday is pretty much my nightmare.  I like Cyber Monday much better.  :)  You ladies are brave!
