I haven't been able to go Black Friday shopping and my mom didn't go out this year. I wish I could though! The sales are awesome!

I went to black friday, but since I only went to Nordstrom for makeup, I didn't save any money.( Nordstrom didn't have a sale). I did get to see all the cute holiday collections though!

fashioncat on 11/29/2009 4:35:37 PM

I'm not crazy about Black Friday or anything, but I went at 6 in the morning and got all christmas gifts (almost!) But my friends and I made fun of all the people at Walmart who were there at midnight, when it didn't even open til 4:00! I did get some pretty good deals though

reneau2 on 11/28/2009 11:19:11 PM

hah, i didn't go 2 any black friday sales but my bros did and got a ps3 and coolpix camera. Laughing i've been wanting small digital camera for forever and i got one--oh excuse me, my family and i, i mean. Laughing

ginseng123 on 11/28/2009 9:29:19 PM

I went to the black Friday sales! It was crazy, but def worth it! I didn't buy much, because I went to get free things. It was soooo much fun. Next year I will probably be doing the same thing with the same friends,

OMG went to aeropostale yesterday the sales were HUGE! the sweatshirts that are usually 45 are now 22 cuz 50% off. And they had a whole lotta stuff 4 70% off! It Was AWEsome!

cremecream on 11/28/2009 10:59:27 AM

MODMODMOD so last night i watched criminal minds and i got rlly scared while watching but i didnt want 2 stop watching bcuz i wanted 2 c the ending. but now i cant go 2 sleep without having nightmares. any ideas on how 2 get rid of them and how 2 stay away from these shows in the future?

 

Hey girl, as for staying away from those shows, knowing that they scare you is really the best tip.  If you know you'll get scared, just change the channel when you see it's on.  To get to sleep, (I sympathize because scary shows/movies always freak me out) try thinking about something happy.  Think about your crush, how great your day was, or what you're looking forward to in the week.  Best, Kristen <3

ImSuperGirl on 11/27/2009 11:47:46 PM

football playa 4eva! on 11/27/2009 8:25:43 PM

MOD! im in 9th grade and i have never had a boy friend. i feel like there arent any guys who like me. at all. what should i do?

 

Hey babe,

It's better to have never had a boyfriend then to have dated a bunch of guys who weren't right for you. You'll meet the right guy who will be into you for who you are. Just keep being patient!

micpenguin on 11/27/2009 8:23:44 PM

It wasn't all that crowded- I mean, I went with my older cousin and things were fine. I got my 'lil sis a mani-pedi kit for $10, my mom a gift card to Carson's, and my dad some gloves cuz he like snow shovels and stuff outside during the winter, with a cool football logo. We went to Aeropostale and OMG it was so crowded, we could barely get in! It was really warm and I was wearing a sweatshirt and it was way crowded and ugh!!! but anyway that could be for the best because I sure do NOT need to spend any more money. I'll wait 'till after the holidays cuz by then I'll prob have a gift card or two, yay!!! I'm excited for Xmas this year, sometime this weekend we are gonna put up our Hannukah and Xmas decorations!!!

cassieann23 on 11/27/2009 6:45:03 PM

I got up at 3 to go to Walmart. My parents got us cameras for christmas and my dad bought a tv.
I bought a couple games and some cheap gifts for my cousins. I shopped from 3:30-11:30 and 1:30-4:30............long day

skatefun on 11/27/2009 6:09:57 PM

SportyGirl22 on 11/27/2009 5:23:09 PM

misselenius on 11/27/2009 5:14:21 PM

!!!MOD!!!MOD!!!MOD!!!MOD!!!MOD!!!
this is a really random question. the girls in one of my dance classes and i want to get something for our dance teacher, who is pregnant. what kind of card would you get her? would u get her one after she has that says 'congratulations' or one before she has it? sorry i know i sound kinda stupid but i've never had to buy a card for someone who is having a baby! thanks!




Hey girl,

See if there are any cute baby-appro cards if not you could all pitch in and make your own super cute and heartfelt one saying congrats and thanking her for all she's done.

smuckers_94 on 11/27/2009 4:00:36 PM

i have six different scents of bath and body works hand sanitizer in my locker and I pick one to carry with me everyday. It smells so perfumey it keeps the boys that are jerks away (lol Tong ) but we know the boys who still hang around us with it on, well we know they like us then. so me and my friends can tell who likes us and who doesn't! my crush even jokes with me and asks me for some. Tong lol. Bath and body works made it easy to see who liked me! lol Tong true story!!

emsha81 on 11/27/2009 3:34:15 PM

My whole fam went but me, my sis and my dad.

I heck of wanted to go.

Caramel_Apple on 11/27/2009 3:08:55 PM

i love bath & body works....
my favz r the white citrus lotion that smells like perfume, but also keeps u moisterized!

Hey girl,

BrazilRocks on 11/27/2009 2:55:55 PM

I went! This was like my first time. My mom and I went late though, at 7:00. The deals were okay and I got so much stuff:]

Stargirlcandy3 on 11/27/2009 2:39:10 PM

I went and it was crowded but cool!
I woke up at 5 in the morning because Black Friday is a time-honored tradition for our family. We ate breakfast and were all out the door by 5:30, got to Staples by 5:45, where it was madness there. We found most of the things we needed and got out of there, where we headed to Old Navy where it was more chaotic, but I got 2 pairs of skinny jeans. After that we proceeded to Kohl's, where we waited in line for an hour but my mom got all the things she wanted, I got a pair of boots, 2 shirts, and a pink Snuggie which is very warm and comfy. We went to Target where we got a few movies we'll be watching tonight, mainly Christmas ones. We then moved on to American Eagle where I got 2 cardigans and a cute shirt. All in all a great Black Friday, although I wouldn't have regretted staying home and hiding from all of the crazed shoppers and large crowds. I used to love Black Friday and then I hated it when I was in my preteen years, now the "Eh. It's okay..." mood is here concerning Black Friday in my teenage years. Killer deals and wonderful items await you if you're willing to battle out the large crowds by hand. I did not get pushed but I witnessed two women fighting over a pair of jeans at AE, but nothing other than that. However my best friend went to a mall on the other side of town and came out with a lot of wonderful deals but plenty of scrapes. She just sent me an e-mail with her new laptop.

slipprybubbles on 11/27/2009 2:32:06 PM

I went to midnight madness which is like black friday. I bought a brand new DC jacket!Smile:p

ok im going shopping and i really like alloy shoes, but i dont like to shop online, and no alloy store near me...sooooo i was wondering if places like shoe stop, payless, and even target would have shoes like theres. i really like alloys Bethany Heel would any place have shoes like the bethany heel?

 

Hey chicky, check out department stores! They have tons of shoes, all different brands! I am sure you could find something similar! Good luck fighting those black friday crowds!

I would NEVER go shopping on Black Friday.
If I want discounts, I go to a thrift shop.

dancingstar123 on 11/27/2009 12:34:21 AM

thnx

ImSuperGirl on 11/27/2009 12:12:39 AM

MOD
(i forgot to put MOD before, sorry!)
I'm going shopping tomorrow, and i have eighty $ to spend. my mom can take me to marshall's or TJ Maxx. i don't think i can get shoes (i really want to though,) which store do you think will be better for me? (i'm 11, and i wear junior's 2 and small)




Hey babe, I think they're both great options. Since the prices are prob the same at both stores, pick the one with a bigger selection. Maybe you could try both. Happy shopping!

ImSuperGirl on 11/26/2009 11:58:20 PM

I du know if I'll go this year. It's getting kinda crazy with the deaths of those people who got trampled at Walmart last year. I'll be one of the people who will be in their PJ's feeling bad for the people up in the crowds!!!!!!!!
