Black Friday

Yes, Reed and I were crazy and went shopping on Black Friday. Patrick slept at Grandma's house and we got up and tackled Walmart at 5am. But we did it for our child! We got him some blocks for Christmas, and then we found a couple other great deals. We got a Black and Decker cordless drill for $25. (Reed still doesn't really know why I wanted this doorbuster so badly, but I told him we would use it a lot in our house. We don't need to pay Home Depot to install our blinds when we can do it ourselves!)

Then we went to Ultimate Electronics to look a new camera and a washer and dryer. I had found a great deal in the Home Depot ad for a Maytag pair, and I was going to see if Ultimate would price match since we were there. Then the guy who was helping us wanted to show us some others that were better efficiency than the pair in the ad. I was a little hesitant at first because I wanted to stay in budget, but we found a great GE pair that is energy efficient and just below the pair we originally wanted, and with the water rebates, they were only $50 more, so we went with those. Most of our time at Ultimate was spent standing/sitting in line, but we still had a good time.

We also got a new camera which is a great upgrade for us. The pictures look great (see last post). There will probably be many more pictures on our blog now, and we can now share video with sound! So I will try to capture Patrick gabbering away and post it.
