Here is the line for the Coach Store from the door out into the end of the parking lot. We were right in the middle and at Midnight when to store opened due to capacity limits they were only able the let in so many at a time. Well, everyone was walking out of the store with huge bags and as I was standing in line I was panicking thinking everything was going to be picked over. As we were nearing the door to the store a Manager stepped out and announced " We are offering 50 % off with an additional 10% off door buster coupon"...I had an organism I swear to God. Once inside I was in sheer bliss. My Mom took one side and I took the other grabbing any bag, wallet, and clutch that we liked. After making rounds we met up in the corner of the store to assess the goods. The prices were RIDICULOUS. It was so much fun, I was in heaven. It didn't even matter that I waited 1 hour in the check out line to buy my stuff, it was all worth it when I paid 347.00 for three hand bags and a wallet. Oh, Coach is Mommys happiest place on earth.
Who ever said good things come in small packages obviously has never been to a doorbuster Coach sale.
After Coach we ran to The Gap, Gymboree, Eddie Bauer and J Crew. Mostly the check out lines were too long but we were able to get somethings for Dave's Birthday. We left the outlets at 2:23 in the morning heading back to Fleming Island for the Walmart and Target sales. We were hungry and had to go to the bathroom so we came home had a quick bite of cereal and ran to Walmart. The Walmart sale started at 5:00am and when the store is open 24 hours they let you into the area you are looking for items in. I was looking for the Leapster that was on sale from 70.00 to 30.00. All the pallets were covered and there was people everywhere. So once I found the right place to be my Mom went on the hunt for the rest of the things we were looking for. At about 15 till 5:00 this lady came and stepped right in front of the pallet of Leapsters which made me cranky so I pushed her to the side and stepped in front of her hoping I would block her out since about 10 of us were there before her. Well, as they made the announcement that the sale had started this random lady jumps in front of all of us and rips open the pallet. I start grabbing and got a pink Leapster for a friend of mine but I can't see any more green ones which is the one I want, so starting to panic, I was ripping the shrink wrap off the bottom of the pallet and one of the nice ladys that was waiting with me in the beginning grabs the last green one and handed it to me. I was on my hands and knees trying to get up and some wench was reaching over the pallet from the back and pinned my between the pallet and the floor. It was insane, after less then 2 minutes all the Leapsters were gone. After getting my Leapsters I went to the game department looking for Leapster games because Walmart will ad match and Target had the Leapster games from 29.99 to 15.00 so I went to find the things I was going to get at Target and luckily got the last two of the Moonsand sets that were in the Target ad, this saving me a trip to the Target sale. All in all we got 4.00 pj sets, 9.00 Kung Fu Panda, 4.00 Alvin and the Chipmunks,30.00 Leapsters and 15.00 games all for 100.00. Yeah.
I am thrilled at my deals. After complex ad review, My mom and I taking on different departments and being up all night I saved buckets of money...and I got 3 Coach handbags...not to opened until Christmas (thanks Dave for my presents).
I feel like I am having a shopping hangover but, running on adrenaline all night provided me with the will to get EVERYTHING I set out to get.

You are amazing. We are going to get Emerie a Leapster this year too, but we will be one of those suckers that pays a lot more than $30! =) I'm okay with that because I don't think I would fight those crowds even if they were free! =) Good job crazy shopper!
