Poll: Is Black Friday a Shopping Day for You?
When people start lining up late Thanksgiving night to take advantage of door-buster deals in the wee hours Friday morning will you be there?
Love it or hate it, Black Friday is the super bowl of shopping.
And with its arrival only mere days away, Prince George's County is abuzz with people talking about the potential savings stores big and small have to offer.
Some people create their own Black Friday “game plans” on what stores to hit and when after they've poured over the announced bargains various retailers have to offer.
There are those so keen on saving they set alarms to wake them up in the wee hours of the night. These folks line up early and some even camp out all night to be able to scoop up the deals they’re after.
Are you one of those shoppers? Do you do Black Friday or do you prefer to stay as far away from stores on the day after Thanksgiving as possible?
Let us know by taking casting your vote in the poll below or share your thoughts on this national pastime in the comments section.

I have never, ever been shopping on Black Friday and I don't plan to start this year.

Absolutely NEVER go out for Black Friday shopping. I watch for good deals for presents at other times of the year. Too, unless you absolutely HAVE to have the latest electronic gadgets, there's SO many other choices for shopping other than the big box stores and the malls; you can find a lot of great items at the museum shops in DC, at local festivals and fairs, etc. Not to mention local boutiques and "mom and pop" stores. There's many places to shop and you won't wind up giving the person the same stuff they can get at any mall anywhere in the country.
