I haven't for years but today I did. Hubby wanted to go too, surprisingly. I finished up shopping for everyone on my list except my own kids, I shop for them all month long. I didn't have any trouble finding parking or bargains. I didn't wait in line more than 5 minutes and didn't get ticked off at anything. Definitely not the morning I expected.
Think highly of yourself because the world takes you at your estimate.

I have never gone, but did today - 5 am at Walmart for a new printer. Everyone was happy, lines went smoothly, and I scored a new printer for pennies.

I went a few years ago but walked out without anything except anger there is no way I'm going to subject myself to that again.

My husband gets up at 5am so I do too. Around 6am when he left, I figured I'm up, why not. No crowds by the time I got there and parking lots were not so full. Got the few things that I wanted to try for and am back home.

The people who are going can't answer this morning because they left at 4am to go shopping and they'll be gone all day. LOL.
As for me, I don't plan to Christmas shop on foot. I might cruise the internet and order some things so as to take advantage of this weekend's free shipping perk offered by many online retailers. I'm also taking my 17 y/o daughter to pay for and drive away with a car she wants to buy but since she's already picked it out that isn't really shopping.
