lostintransition: The best deals have yet to come so hold back
until the week before Christmas. It's true that malls aren't as
packed as in years past, so you're lucky.
MG: I was headed to Kohl's too but I just didn't want to do
battle with the lines. The Best Buy here was rocking! OMG, I so
wanted to jump in but told myself, the best is yet to come, so I
headed to Costco. What movies didja get?
I scored at Lowe's. There is a $3 rebate programme on holiday
lights. Bring your old ones and get $3 off your purchase of new
ones. I got that and there was a $10 coupon off a furture $50
purchase in each of the five boxes I got. Like that! Hey MG, they
have 12x12 ceramic tiles for 58 cents a piece!!!!! In tasteful
colours too! 
Went to Costco to get the cookbook they give out free every year
and while there, I got my fave Kjeldsen's (yoohoo!
MG! 
) butter cookies and
used my coupons towards some basics.
Hit the Hallmark store armed with coupons and got last year's
Barry Manilow holiday CD for $1. MG, shall I gift this to
you?
And now, get ready for Cyber Monday.
I picked up the BDs of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home for $7.99 apiece from Best
Buy. I was there late morning on Black Friday and was pleasantly
surprised at the lack of lines at the cash registers. Unlike
Kohl's, BB actually puts more cashiers on duty during the holiday
shopping season.
Did you end up getting the tiles at Lowe's?
As with previous years, I'll hold back on getting the Kjeldsen's
butter cookies until the day after Christmas, when they go on sale
for half price at Wally World, at which time I usually
pick up about 20 tins of the stuff. 
Any plans for Cyber Monday?
