Happy Thanksgiving and Black Friday

Here at PPM Works, we would like to wish everyone a wonderful and Happy Thanksgiving!

As many of you that know me, know that I love to go shopping!!! For the last 10 years I have been one of the crazy people you see running through the stores to get the sale items on Black Friday, well I have  gotten better at planning on where I am going to go, what I am going to get, how long I am going to be at one store and so on.

Well this year I have decided to try to plan everything using Microsoft Project. Yes, I have started the schedule already.

Years ago it was planning all the stores and putting all the ads in order by when the store opens, then I would start by getting up at 4:00am on Friday and getting in comfortable clothes, getting my husband up, and hitting the road.

Over the last few years Black Friday has started on Thanksgiving evening. We usually have dinner around 1:00pm, take naps if needed, then we are out the door round 6:00pm. Well this year it looks like we will need to be out the door at 4:00pm.

Below is a glimpse of my schedule and will finish it during the day, as I go through all the ads. :)
