Black Friday

For years I have been getting up early to do Black Friday shopping with Aimee and my mom and sometimes The King. But this year I am in Utah so I didn't know if I was going to get the chance to go or not. I don't think I've ever bought anything, I just go for the fun of it to help Aimee and my mom. Since I haven't found a job yet, I did see somethings that I'd like to get but no money to get the stuff. So I wanted to go, but I didn't want to go and just walk around for nothing. So last night my friend Alicia called me and said she had looked at the ads and she found somethings that she wanted so she decided that she was going to go. I was so excited to hear that I was going to be able to keep the tradition that I've had (besides the time that I was on my mission).

Yesterday I asked my mom to call me when they were out. So I went to bed at 1 a.m. and my mom called me at 2:30 a.m. (3:30 a.m. her time). So I talked to her for a minute and went back to sleep for an hour, then got up at 3:30 to get ready and go over to Alicia's house. We went to Kohl's first and got a few things. In the middle of all the shopping I was talking to my mom. I found out that there was one thing that Aimee was going to get at Wal-mart, and we were going to go to Wal-mart anyway so I said I would look for it. While Alicia was walking around Kohl's to find something, she found the wonder colors and told me about it. So I went and it was the same thing that Aimee was looking for so I got it, was only $5.49. We ended up staying in line for about an hour.

As we approached the check out lines I noticed a friend of mine, Alan, that I hadn't seen for a while that I forgot worked there. We ended up at the register right in front of him, but I didn't say anything, because he was really busy checking customers out. But as he had a little break he said fine Angela don't say hi. I said, hey you were busy and I didn't want to distract you. It was nice to see him. So we checked out and headed to Wal-mart. At Wal-mart Alicia found out that the same things I got at Kohl's cost $7.49, so we were glad that we got them at Wal-mart!!

Only getting a few hours of sleep I was surprised that I was not more tired than I felt. I want to thank Alicia for helping me keep my Black Friday tradition.

Then later on today I went out shopping with my roommate Lisa and her family plus some friends. We ended up at Kohl's again and this time Alan, my friend checked us out. He was like hey again.
