I don't do Black Friday. Just too hectic for me.

=) It also helps to go in with a smile-ly, shiny attitude, it disarms those mean crazies.

They are having the Accuquilt GO! for $199 - but I believe the ad stated "fri, sat, & sun", so no need to rush in there early Friday morn. Of course, they will be sold out if you wait..... :thumbdown: Do they do rainchecks??

The newest Joann's flyer states on the front page "All Day Doorbusters", but read the fine print. At the bottom of the Doorbuster pages it states "Doorbuster items limited to stock on hand. No special orders. No rainchecks." So if you want a doorbuster item you'd better get there at 6am. Last year I went at 8am and all the doorbusters that I wanted were sold out already.

Quit going to Joanns on black friday. The line were 1-2 hours long. Not worth it.

check with your Joann's to find out how many they have on hand...I'm still trying to talk myself into spending the money on one. I keep thinking of all the other things that money could be used for.

I miss Joann's BF sale... Having said that - next year our new Joann's will be open and I'm sure I'll be there for it! They usually put on quite a sale!

I am probably going to go to Hancock's Friday or Saturday.... That's the best we have here. Hobby Lobby never does anything out of the ordinary...
