I am thankful for cheap toys.
Yep, that's right. I said I wasn't gonna, but Toys'R'Us called and I ran to answer. Well, actually waited in line for 2 hours in the very cold rain, but same difference right?
In good news, I got $400 worth of toys for only $200. And I learned some excellent tips for next year. As much as I was dreading it, I will definitely be right there in line again next year!
In bad news, I got home at 2am. When I left at 8:45, Steve asked why I was leaving so early. Next year, I am heading out 30 minutes earlier! The line wrapped around the building AND the parking lot. Could have been worse: people were in tents for Best Buy!
It was a MADHOUSE inside. I will say, they had a ton of stock though. Except those dang Polly Pockets. I totally missed that one. And the 'puppy love' baby doll. Oh well, live and learn. I got everything else on my list. I REALLY wanted the Powerwheels Quad rider, I was worried I wouldn't get it, but of course they had about 200 of them in the middle of the main aisle. Yay. Christmas shopping is pretty much done for the kids. I have to make a couple of things for my nieces, but that will happen when it happens. So far as spending, they are done.
There is something really nice about for once feeling like I am on top of something.
Overall I am pretty thrilled. I gotta say: I am thankful for Black Friday. (And come Christmas Day, Kira will be too! I am thankful for that as well.)
