I would never get up and go shopping @ such an awful hour of the morning! To me the price isn't worth all the hassle! Really, the best deal I got this week is $90rt tickets to Oahu to go to a concert! Personally, I hate shopping! I would never get up and go shopping @ such an awful hour of the morning!

Typically I'm totally with you Brody on your feelings for Walmart. It brings out the worst in parenting and children's behavior. But, alas, when my son (age 21 and past screaming in Walmart behavior) brought over a torn out piece of paper from the 'while supplies last' section of the Black Friday flier, and quietly mentioned how much he'd appreciate the Kitchen Aide Stand mixer (this after having said the day before that he couldn't think of a thing he needed or even wanted for Christmas), I committed myself to going. Up at 4, at Walmart by 4:30, found my goal, home back in bed by 5:30. I guess Walmart can bring out the best in kids <i>and</i> parents, cause I know my boy will love his new toy! I spent the rest of the day trying to load windows on a new hard drive. It has not been a fun day. I DID the Walmart thing this morning.

I slept 'til 10am. Then Rachel and I headed to lunch with friends near Duke University while the kids stayed with their cousins. I had a great dinner of Cuban food and followed it up with four games of pool. The whole day was a bargain...yet priceless. My deal? I slept 'til 10am.

I was so bored today. Although my wife went to Target this afternoon after the grocery store..and she said it was empty. I guess everyone had their fill. Nope.. I was so bored today.

Best Buy had a PC bundle special for $599. It's an HP with 4 processors, 6gb of memory and a 650gb hard-drive. It came with a 21.6" flat screen monitor and a Cannon printer. It was just under $1100 separately. It's not a Mac (don't want or need one). Our current PC is almost 9 years old though and it REALLY shows it's age. It's also become recently possessed, despite repeated complete wipes. Merry Christmas to the family!
