Christmas Shopping

Saturday morning got up with the hunters at 3:30 am. Couldn't go back to sleep.
My son was home for the weekend from college. Kohls was having an earlybird
sale so my son and I got to Kohl's at 6 am. The parking lot was empty. We were the only customers in the store. I loved it. No crowds. We left at 7:30 am there were only a couple of cars in the parking lot.
THEN: when my daughter got home from hunting with her dad she wanted to go.
Big mistake. The sale was still going on till 1 pm. We got there about 11. Needless to say we didn't stay long. Found some things for my daughter and left. It was a zoo..............This is a store that just opened in our little town of about 10,000. All the registers were open and had at least 5 people in each waiting in line. That's why I never go shopping later in the day or the day after Thanksgiving.

I went once the day after Thanksgiving. I went with my friend Linda and her daughter Lori. It was the best time shopping I ever had. We got up really early, I think it was around 4 or 5 AM and then we didn't get home until after dark. Her sister was there too and I'm thinking someone else, but my mind just doesn't recall and we hit about every store....I loved it.

5 people!!! In Brooklyn they're waiting outside to get in!

We don't have a Kohl's around here. I shop online because I love Kohl's.

I love Kohls we have two by me.. I never make it to early bird specials so early in the morning.. I always get coupons in the mail, sometimes I luck out and get 30 percent off.. Now that puts a smile on my face...

I like Kohls too! I have a 15% off coupon right now - not too much - but something and they usually have good prices!

I love Kohl's. The best part is picking things out and deciding how much you can afford to buy this trip, getting to the registers and discovering your items are 50% off. This happened to Melissa and me not too long ago. It feels like you won a little lotto or something.

I love Kohl's too. I do shop quite a bit online from them. I would love to try an early sale, but doubt I will be able to for awhile.

I like Kohl's too but I live too far from one to do the early bird specials. I do a lot of shopping on-line with them.

I've got a 30% coupon! It is like winning the lottery.

On one of my first visits to Kohl's I picked out a skirt that was marked $20. It was on a clearance rack. By the time the checkout person finished with the discounts, it cost me $1.84! I was so hooked.

I love buying the kids clothes when they have the $75 free shipping, with a coupon, and having them shipped right to their house. You can get shirts for $4.00.
