4:45 am- Alarm goes off. Allie and I pop out of bed and bundle up
5:30 am- Waiting in line at Target and Office Depot, thankful it's not as cold as last year
6:00 am- Doors open. Get all the killer deals we were after (memory cards, DVDs, and Wii game). Success!!
6:45 am- Waiting, waiting, waiting in cashier line, but it's worth it
7:00 am- Snag some $20 designer jeans for Chase at the mall. Success!!
9:00 am- Ryan, Rachelle and Pops hit up Costco for an HDTV and Lowes for tools. Success!!
10:00 am- Meet at parents to regroup, refuel, and get back out there
11:00 am- Bukoos for additional deals
12:00 pm- Crash!
An overall success! This year however, there were many deals the week of Thanksgiving and extending through the weekend. I ended up getting my gift two days prior, so it eliminated an additional stop on Friday. With 90% of my shopping done, I can sit back and bask in this year's success!

Wow, sounds super intense! But also like way too much fun! You are such a cute girl Katie! Go team Cook!
We have never been a part of the madness. We had a similar day that involved free breakfast at Sam's club and IKEA! The best part of the day was watching the meth-heads at WalMart and Kmart fighting over their spot in line.
We will definitely looking forward to going next year. Aw - we will need a babysitter if we want to go again next year, weird.
I had lots of fun this year having the sleepover in our old room together, waking up and wondering if it was really worth it, and going out together and catchin' all the bargains! :) This is definately something I will truly miss while in Texas...is spending time with my big Sis! I love ya girl!
P.S. That video of me is hideous!!
Kates,
