Do you participate in "Black Friday"? If so, online/in person/independent stores?

My husband and I are so into cooking dinner and hanging out with family, we never could imagine having the energy to do anything more than a post-holiday crash complete with sleep and watching movies.

I'm really curious of what everyone else does. If you do Black Friday, how do you participate? What good deals made it totally worth going out in the cold/staying up late to shop? I'd love to know what I miss every year. Any pics you can share? :-)

Oak Park's Cosi is closing

Sad to learn of another business closing its doors in March...
http://www.pioneerlocal.com/oakpark/news/2889102,op-cosi-111810-s1.article

On a positive note, it sounds like it should hopefully be rented very soon.
