Black Friday
by: Julie
Last Friday, as many of you know, was Black Friday. My parents woke me up at around 7:00 to eat breakfast, and we drove to JCPenny to shop. There were LINES of cars in the parking lot. We had to park on the top level and take the elevator down. When we reached the store, there were crowds at every corner and turn. We had to squeeze through crowds to get where we wanted. My parents weaved around the store to look for stuff they need. They came back with nothing. We walked down to Sears and looked. Still nothing. So, my parents drove over to Target and shopped. My parents found nothing they need again. I suggested we buy Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and my parents agreed. They know I am very into magic. So we went home with a single movie that cost us hours of shopping. My mom and I made a joke on the way home: What if we found lines of people in front of our house?
Did you go shopping on Black Friday? What did you buy? If you didn’t shop, what are you looking forward to on future Black Fridays?

I didn't go shopping on Black Friday this year, or the year before. This year, my family was at L.A. during Black Friday. On Black Friday, we were planning to go to Universal Studios. When we were passing Macy's on the way, the parking lot was FILLED! Each and everyone of them were filled and some other cars were still looking around for a spot. If I am going to Black Friday next year, I would expect many enjoyable stuff at the stores. Such as game devices.
Great post, Julie!!!
Yes,we went shopping on Black Friday. We bought clothes at Costco and my parents bought me a new bike at Sports Authority. Both stores were packed with people. At Sports Authority there was only one bike left that was my size and switched gears. Since we had a church thing called a retreat,we went to those shops in the afternoon. A retreat is a recreational time for adults and kids. It was held at Foster City. That was what I did during Black Friday.
I went shopping on Black Friday with my mom. She woke me up at 7:00 because I couldn't stay home a lone and she wanted to go shopping. So I had to tag along. First we went to Loehmanns, but my mom didn't find any good deals, so we left. We went to Macy's, and my mom found two jackets she liked. It took her about an hour to choose which one she wanted and she even got more choices. When she finally decided, we went in line for about twenty minutes. When we got home, my mom put it on, and decided to return it! One hour and twenty minutes of my time wasted!
I went shopping on BLACK FRIDAY.My dad bought me an ACER laptop for christmas online.It only cost $250!I alaso bought a Nerf gun.It was $10 cheaper! My dad bought a Global Positioning System (GPS) for $114.My dad bought some IPAD accecorries at FRY'S early in the morning while my mom didn't go and while I was sleeping.He bought a IPAD protector case.It looked like it was made out of plastic.It only covered the the back and the sides,so it doesn't protect the screen.That was mostly all we bought because other things were sold out. (Just like what happened to Julie's family)
I did not go to Black Friday because I was in Lake Tahoe. On the next Black Friday we are planning to get a new T.V.

Awesome Post! This year, I did happen to go shopping on Black Friday. I got a trampoline and a new TV. I didn't go, but my dad got up at like 3 in the morning to get our stuff. He said that the parking lot was PACKED! Just like Danhee said. So that's pretty much my Black Friday.
I didn't go shopping on Black Friday. But I was in San Francisco and saw tons of people shopping. On future Black Fridays I would like to go shopping with my mom and sister. We would stop for lunch at a fancy restaurant too.
We went shopping on Black Friday. I got some lighting for my room. My dad was going to get a tiny desk lamp but none of the ones Ikea or Target had gave enough light so we're planning on getting it next Black Friday.
