Ouch, that looks rough for door dings and lots of crazed shoppers!

I will say when my kids were little I stood in line a few times to get the gift, but that was before online was soo easy

Neat pic

I tried Black Friday shopping once about 15 years ago. I was in Walmart East in Green Bay and I was having a hard time just getting out of the store because of the crowds. That was the last time I went shopping on Black Friday!

Many years ago, [over 40] my wife worked for KMart. On Black Friday, she was in charge of the Cabbage Patch dolls. She made a Red Light announcement that a pallet of dolls had just arrived and within seconds she was “mauled” by countless shoppers. She ended up at the bottom of the pallet box holding one doll. She claimed it as hers; our daughter got her Cabbage Patch doll that year, and Black Friday was the last day my wife worked for KMart. And we never shopped on Black Friday.

Ventured out to the local hardware store on Friday. Think there were 6 cars in the parking lot, which I guess could be considered a Black Friday rush. Bought a Nut Goodie, Diet Pepsi, and a can of tire foam, none of which were a Black Friday special.

What does that say about me when I remember both Cabbage Patch Dolls and KMart?!? I am getting old. At the KMart here in Green Bay, it was always a Blue Light Special but maybe your wife's store burned out their blue bulb! Hope your wife didn't get injured grabbing that doll.

Yeah, we're running low on dog food so I'm going to have to venture out at some point. Although....we have lots of leftover Turkey!
I'd get no argument from the dog so that's a win/win for me and the mutt!​
And this is why I now buy my dog food on Chewy.com FedEx delivery guy brings it right to my door and always leaves treatos on top of box unless they are out when he comes, then they fleece him for all they can get. If driver sees me out walking them he tosses treatoes out his window to them, SPOILED BRATS!!!
