A few years back my sisters and mom and I decided to hit up Walmart at 5 a.m. on black friday
We had no idea what we were in for
and found the whole thing a bit funny
We have since gone back every year since then but usually we go a couple hours later because we just like to hang out
Well this year the sales started at 10
and they had some good deals
Mark and I had the oldest smallest t.v. ever!
We didn't really care because we only watch movies occasionally but they had t.v. for such a good deal
so I thought what the heck I will try to get one
and I knew Julie was in the market for a Wii and they were a good deal so I told her I would pick them up!
I also saw a couple other things I wanted so we all headed out
We got to Walmart just before 10 and they had already but the 10 o'clock stuff already out
I couldn't find the sheet set I wanted but it was no big deal
We just went for fun mostly
I got in line for the Wii and then left Taylor there to find the t.v. line
We got in the t.v. line and waited since they weren't on sale until 12
I was pretty happy about getting the 2 big things I came for we just had to wait in line
There was also a printer on sale and we desperately needed one so Ashley and I headed to that area
They were not handing out tickets and people were just crowed by the roped off area waiting
I had to leave and when I got back people were glaring at me for finding Ashley!
Well they finally let people go in after a big lecture about no pushing
and the madness started...
I was being pushed around and could not move ANYWHERE
Taylor was holding on to me for dear life
Ashley was getting what she wanted in the madness
She looked at me and saw I couldn't move so she grabbed my printer
People kept yelling at me that I was in their way and I couldn't even do anything
Finally I just yelled "I want out"
I finally found an opening and freed myself
A Walmart employee asked me if I was ok.
We got back to the t.v. line...Ashley shaking...Taylor feeling violated and me wondering what my problem was
Did I really risk my life for a printer?
It wasn't even the big items I wanted!
And now I think I have to consider myself one of those people!
This is what our cart looked like
It did have 3 different people's stuff in it
As we were waiting in the super long check out lines
My mom noticed a pile of discarded items
They had sheets so she went to look...they were queen....and blue to match our bedspread
The first Christmas miracle of the season!
Right after I risked my life
I am still trying to decided if it was worth it!
