Since all the crazy people shopped at midnight this year, getting up for some sales at 7am didn't seem so bad. We had great luck with deals, parking, and line waiting. We met up at JoAnns, got some crafting stuff, and headed to the mall. We just stopped at a couple places, checked out at only one, and then went over to the festival. After a quick stop in the kitchen store and a longer trip to Kohl's, we went back to Michael's and Home Depot. We didn't get stuff in every store, but were surprised by short lines, open parking spaces, and relatively friendly people. I did hear several shoppers say they had been out all night. Ouch! I was tired, and all I did in the dark of night was click a few buttons online!
Mike & I did go back to Home Depot later in the day because we need a toilet to replace the one in the hall bathroom. Disappointingly, they had 20 toilets in white and only 2 in bone/cream/off white. That really made our decision easy, but there were cheaper models in white since there were more choices! Rather than install it right when we got home, we spent a couple hours raking. I grew up with a small set of woods behind our house, so my dad didn't have to bag the leaves and drive them to the dump. What a luxury that would be!!!
