Heck I don't think I will venture out at all during those days.<br /><br />Like you mention in places like Best Buy the people that have been camping for days will be the ones to get the good deals. Got to have a stratedy and I didn't have one.MsBelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035993834877022676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538104263023802022.post-52636102934397777782013-12-01T07:33:33.268-08:002013-12-01T07:33:33.268-08:00Sure glad I didn't have to do that!

My daughter had her in-laws in town for Thanksgiving so we all got the bright idea to go out for a late lunch on Friday. Did we go to a stand-alone restaurant? No we did not. We decided to go to the Yardhouse located in La Cantera (In San Antonio). We drove two cars since we had 8 people. What a madhouse. It took me 25 minutes of driving around just to find a parking spot. Thankfully, not all those people were there to eat. <br /><br />I did do a Black Friday thing once. We have an OfficeMax next door to a Best Buy. I did get a good deal on a printer, but all the real deals - laptops and such - we snatched up by the first 20 or 30 people in the store. I guess showing up 15 minutes before opening isn't the way you play that game.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04752379587655151211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538104263023802022.post-83659104411859146192013-11-30T02:43:47.381-08:002013-11-30T02:43:47.381-08:00If you like to people watch then Wal-Mart on Black...If you like to people watch then Wal-Mart on Black Friday is definitively the place to be. You will see the best, but more than not the worst in people.<br /><br />You are the second person that says the Rockport Wal-Mart had a lull in crowds. Have no idea how it was in the Del Rio Wal-Mart today and I hope to never find out.<br /><br />This was my first Thursday pre-Black Friday and hopefully my last, that I ever expect to be a part of.MsBelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035993834877022676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538104263023802022.post-45547440790028993192013-11-30T02:34:09.269-08:002013-11-30T02:34:09.269-08:00You mean there was a lull?

I'm thinking it started at midnight. We did have to wait in a line to get into Walmart at midnight & Best Buy a couple of hours later.<br />I do remember stopping at Jack-in-the-box around 0330 or 0400, a huge number of people there & the two guys were swamped. They tried to call in help but no one would come. We sat there (inside) watching the show for over an hour while waiting for burgers & french fries, the line of cars in at the drive-up was huge. Good fun!<br />We went to Walmart (Rockport) this afternoon for toilet paper, the sales stuff must have been long gone as there were no crowds.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05450082315014407506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538104263023802022.post-27238172480289160282013-11-29T13:24:46.820-08:002013-11-29T13:24:46.820-08:00I sneaked into Walmart in Rockport and Lowes in Ar...I sneaked into Walmart in Rockport and Lowes in Aransas Pass during lulls in the mobs today.
