Black Friday Shopping Groups

Guest post from: Denver Stephens

Never go shopping on Black Friday with a group of friends. They want to go to different stores or one is hungry (at three in the morning) and there's always one that is stuffed hours after Thanksgiving dinner. I went with three friends to the Glen Burnie mall on Black Friday because it had what we were looking for. We split up at the front door and the Keystone Kops ensued.

Becky went into every single store to see their wares but bought nothing because she changed her mind. Sheila bought one thing from every store and got some good prices. Amanda wanted everything but her credit card was almost maxed out so she got a good deal on baby clothes for my granddaughter. I headed for Claire's for stocking stuffers and walked out with six pairs of earrings for five dollars each, one makeup bag for three dollars and several hair restraints of varying size, color and method for a dollar each.

We did decide to move down the street to a clothing store opposite the mall and there all four of us found a gem. I got a sweater, Amanda a pair of jeans, Sheila got a Tshirt and Becky chose a jacket. Prices were two thirds regular price and watching Direct tv in my warm sweater when I got home was great.
