    So we're sitting around waiting for the Turkey to cook and leafing through the Black friday newspaper ads, and while I'm not sure if I will even venture out tomorrow I do know that there is NO WAY I will set foot in any type of electronics store (like Fry's or Best Buy).

    Anyone else avoiding a particular store???

    I don't shop AT ALL on Black Friday.  So I guess you could say that you wouldn't find me shopping anywhere in a million years.

    I'm with Jessie.  We'll shop some other time.  I'm sure it's fun and festive, but it can feel crowded and hectic too.

    I'll live vicariously through those of you who are shopping!

    I will not be shopping in the stores.

    1) Because I am flat broke

    2) I avoid Black Friday shopping like the Black Plague.

    I live in Canada, and have friends that went to Syracuse specifically to shop for deals on Black Friday...apparently they go every year!  I think they are nuts...but whatever floats your boat hah.

    I just can't do it. I am as laidback as they get but I cannot handle the crowds. This is the first year in probably 15 years that I have not had to work the day after Thanksgiving. My husband took they day off and we are just going to stay home, maybe put some Christmas stuff up, and relax.

    I never go shopping on Black Friday. But I will probably venture out tomorrow to look for some wedding stuff - never would have imagined doing this, but there are some amazing deals on decor, wedding party gifts, etc.

    You will not find me... in Atlanta, or in bed. Both places where I would LOVE to be! Instead you'll find me at work at 7 AM!

    I worked retail for 8 years while I was in college (yes, it did take me awhile to graduate but I finally did!) and I will NEVER shop on black friday. I had to put up with waaaaaaaaay too many crazy people. At least I was getting paid....

    You will definitely not find me out shopping or at work. I plan on being one of two places...on the couch with my sweetie or in the bed with my sweetie....the end.

    In a store, period.  I'm spending the weekend packing to move into my guy's place in December and need to badly get rid of stuff -- not accumulate more.  I've never done the whole get up at the crack of dawn shopping but I do think it is sort of festive to go out with the crowds at some point during the day and am kind of bummed to miss it entirely.

    Probably anywhere other than my couch or the corner coffee shop. I normally do shop on BF, but I don't really have a clue what I'm buying this year and don't really have anyone to go with, so I'm going to stay at home and tackle my homework so that my weekend is free. My poor husband works in retail, and has to be up at 3:30, so he's already in bed. :( And I'm about to eat more pie, straight out of the pie plate.

    Not at wal mart!!!

    I will however go to half price books for their five dollar gift card and tote bag at 7 am and then i have to be at work at 7:15... cutting it close but five dollars at 1/2 price is like two books!

    i really wish I could answer this with "work! I won't be at work tomorrow!" But, alas- I cannot say that! Booo! i won't be shopping anywhere because I'll be at the bank handing money out to those people out and about. Rather be home in bed with my poor sick FI!

    I will not be Black-Friday-ing. Severe fear of crowds.

    stores.  I used to work retail - i'm staying HOME!  Maybe hit some grocery stores since everyone and their mother already visited on Wednesday, if i decide to cook stuffed lamb tomorrow.  Otherwise- it's last minute wedding things (vows! eek) and Beatles Rockband for me.
