My sister at the Family Christian Book Store saved almost fifty dollars! <BR/>I spent almost all my money, saved a few cents (almost literally), had a receipt about a third of that size but all my Christmas gifts just need to be made! All the materials are bought-even wrapping paper and tape. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-79467337705679597462008-11-30T12:25:00.000-08:002008-11-30T12:25:00.000-08:00Hello Shannon,Yes the Black Friday sales were real...Hello Shannon,<BR/>Yes the Black Friday sales were really good! JoAnn's was the first place we went, and we saved quite a bit.<BR/><BR/>When we used to go out of town for couponing, we would come home with several long receipts like that one (sometimes even longer!).<BR/><BR/>We had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I hope that yours was a lovely one as well!<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>Miss Emily Rose<BR/><A HREF="http://www.simplyvintagegirl.com/blog/" REL="nofollow">www.simplyvintagegirl.com</A><BR/><BR/>P.S.

I was so tempted to go Black Friday shopping at JoAnns too, but I'm one of those people who doesn't like waiting in a big ol' long line to get my fabric cut and then another one to pay for it. =P It was worth it for you though! I don't think I've ever had a receipt that long and under $100 before!<BR/><BR/>Happy sewing!<BR/><BR/>~NonaMissNonaEleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09941921918397791319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278139998273750963.post-73059447669418948272008-11-29T19:59:00.000-08:002008-11-29T19:59:00.000-08:00Whoa!Sadly, I missed all the sales, since I was wo...Whoa!<BR/><BR/>Sadly, I missed all the sales, since I was working the retail Black Friday.... *sniffles* However, I AM exhausted!
