Thats what my husband says to me everytime I come home with something from the store that wasn't on the list. That comment use to instantly get my back up but lately I think, so what? Isn't that what I am suppose to be doing? Getting things on sale? Having a large family means cutting corners, clipping coupons, and saving the pennies, wherever you can!
I like to think ahead. Check out the sales flyers, buy in bulk when it is worth it and use coupons to save extra moolah when I can. Poor hubby doesn't think that far ahead I guess. He doesn't understand why I would waste money this week to buy 2 containers of laundry detergent, so I can get 1 free, when I will only use 1/3 of it all this week. I try to tell him that detergent is one of those things in our house that we will always use and it is worth it to spend a little more money this week, to get the free jug.
What does this all lead into you may ask? Black Friday!
M(hubby) has no idea why I would get up super early in the morning, stand in the cold, and wait in lines, hours long, all in the name of shopping. He has no idea how much money I save every year doing our holiday shopping by partaking in this little tradition. Maybe I should get a sitter and drag his butt out with me this year?
Tell me I am not the only one labeled crazy enough to partake in some Black Friday fun?

I'm going! But not till later in the afternoon. Curtis is coming to so I'm hoping its a bit calmer after 2 or 3. I've never been!
Haha, yes do it, drag him to black friday!
You should drag him out-he can run for coffe while your in line.
I love going, but this year, noone is available to go with me, and I hate going by myself. Bummer.
I know you can get the deals online too, I may have to go that route.
I've done it a couple of times. I'm not this year b/c we'll be out of town for M's parade dancing.
Black Friday rocks and so does saving money!
