Nope, never do it - doubt I ever will. Wife only tryed it one time I recall. She (and lucky for me) I perfer the after christmas sales - much better deals. Most of those door buster deals are just not worth the money. You seem to get what you pay for. Sister in law like to get those deals and boast about the deal, then a month or two after Xmas, she complains (that's putting it nicely) about the rotten quality and deal. I know, it's a big generalization - buts seems to be the cause.

As posted, way too cold to be out in such weather . .. .  And out your way . .. (middle of no where*), where is there shopping for them? Or do you come into the big city (Mpls)?
