Black Friday Champions



We came, we shopped, we conquored.
  
For those of you who don't know us well, the love of finding a deal is a passion that Leon and I share emphatically.  We are both what we like to think of as, "wise" with our money haha. I might have used the word "cheap" to discribe the boy back in our dating years, but a lot changes once you get married.  And black friday is the day of dreams for us Johnsons.  

Leon and I have been wanting a new tv for a while now (we might still be using the old tv that I had in my dorm room my freshman year of college haha) and so we decided to splurge on a 46 incher from Target.  He may or may not have gotten in line right after Thanksgiving dinner.  I know, talk about determined, he spent 8 hours waiting in line for the baby in our front room.  It is safe to assume that since it is only a few weeks until his first set of law school finals, he spent his time in line studying (always a good thing).  Ellie and I stayed home and printed out lists of things we needed him to get and maps of the store so we could be as efficient as possible.  We would go and visit him every two hours or so to make sure he didn't freeze over. Don't worry Ellie didn't wait in line with him until it was about time to go in.  Ellie and i met up with him about 15 min before the store opened.  Of course we would need to teach our spawn how to do Black Friday right lol.  It was the Holy day for all bargain shoppers. She would need to learn sooner or later.  Ok, ok maybe that is a little overboard and the truth is we just couldn't find a babysitter at one in the morning. She thought it was so much fun.  We were in and out in a half hour and now we have a brand new tv stand and flat screen tv in our living room to show for it.  Move over Jones', here we come lol.
