Christmas Tradition #2- Shopping

I have no pictures because there is NOOOOO time to take pics on black friday.  Every year I go shopping on black friday and get most of my christmas shopping done.  I love the feeling of getting so much done in a quick period of time.  I am extremely strategic and rarely stray from my list (avoiding any emotional or stupid purchases :)  I normally go with my mom, sometimes sisters or cousins, and rarely with my hubby but I love when he comes.  This year DAve and I got to go out together and we were quite the team.  He kept up with us women though :)  It was fun and we always laugh sooo much watching the other people around us.  Some people may say why?  Well, I save probably 50% by going out early.  I came to a new conclusion this year .....and that was I realized why I love shopping on this day better than on other days....because EVERYONE moves fast.  The shoppers, the cars, the cashiers, everyone.  You get done so much in such little time.  Anyway, I love this tradition.  And someday maybe my girls will join me :)
