Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving and one of the busiest shopping days of the holidays, if not the busiest.
I have to admit that I only did the early morning black friday shopping once a few years ago. It was a little fun and I did get some great deals, but had to deal with waking up early, waiting in line (in the cold) for the store to open, then dealing with the crowds and frenzy!
If you want to find the best deals early, there are websites that get the ads ahead of time. Here is a good one:

It is interesting to see what happens. The year I went I saw one group of friends that had done this for years and had matching sweat shirts. When I was in line at Target a nearby Chik-fil-a was there handing out their breakfast biscuits and coffee for free. That was very nice.
Any one else do some Black Friday Shopping and stories?
