Black Friday

The only thing I like to do on Black Friday is stay home.  It isn't safe out there.  People push, shove and fight on that day.  Then the Joann Fabric's flyer came in the mail.  Fleece was on sale for $2.99 a yard, and 25% off the total bill.  That will make lots of blankets for the Preemies.  The price was great!  I will be there as early as I can.  I was ready to leave by 8:00.  The traffic wasn't bad.  Maybe this won't be too bad!  When I got there I couldn't believe what people were bringing out of the store.  Carts heaped with fleece, guess I'm not the only one interested in fleece.  There were no carts so I waited for one and off I went.  There were some new patterns I heaped in my cart.  Off I went to the cutting counter to get a number.  That is when I saw all the people.  I took a number and stared at 71 then looked up at the sign that read 44.  Okay so here I will wait.  $2.99 is nothing to sneeze at.  After a little wait, I went and picked up the other things I wanted, then returned to the fleece aisle.  Some new ones were up again.  Then I went and found a place to stand like everyone else.  Once in a while a sales lady would come by with a cart she was returning to the shelves and there would be another pattern I liked.  Yes, I added it to my stock.  Two hours later 71 was called and then I was on my way out the door with 5 large bags of fleece.  I did have plans of visiting two other stores but my car pointed to home and I agreed. 

When I arrived home Bob wanted to know all about it and asked if I would do it again.  Of course if it was a sale like I got today!......
