I blogged about Black Friday today here...
http://hilltophomeschool.blogspot.com/2008/11/black-friday-can-be-black-day-indeed.html
I'd rather chew my right arm off than shop, and that's on a good day. The Devil's own minions could not get me to shop on Black Friday.
However since I'm a sucker for a sale, I shop, in my pj's, on my laptop, from my bed on Black Friday.
I LOVE the Internet.
I never go to the store on the day after Thanksgiving! I'd rather be shot. The only way I would go is if Kara or Donna wanted me to. I'd brave the crowds for them, but that's the ONLY way I'd go.
I do most of my shopping on the internet these days.
We're writers. I wonder how "normal" people feel about Black Friday. I know my SILs love it, but my mom was never a shopper either, so maybe it's genetic.
I did go to the art store today. I'm going to take up painting again to relax.
I'm not crazy abotu shopping either. I can make a dash through a store in about 5 hot minutes. If it doesn't jump out at me, I don't get anything.
My mother was different. Whenever she went shopping with me, I always came home with a couple of really nice outfits. That's because she took the time to peruse every rack ... while I tried on the bounty she found. :)
I miss my mom. I hope she's picking out some cute white robes for me and has them ready when I arrive in Heaven.
You know the fit will be divine!
No way! I barely shop on normal days. I'm like Ane, a quick sweep through and I'm outta there!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, ALL!!!!
While I love to shop, there's NOTHING that would make me go shopping at midnight on T-giving or later on Friday. No way, no how. My (younger) SIL mocked me for not wanting to join them at the midnight madness. I think people in stores on a normal day are enough to deal with, much less on the biggest shopping day of the year. I like the beauty of shopping online that day!

No. Nuh-uh. Not happening. Like you, I spent too many years working in the mall. Eight years of retail management was more than enough mall time for this chick. My hubby is the one who takes the kids for endless browsing and trying on. Even the thought makes me cringe.
If'n I brave the crowds, it will only be because I live around the corner from Walmart:-) I don't plan on spending much, and doing mostly catalog shopping so I don't have to deal with stress and crowds (I get claustrophic, panic, and then hot flash--almost passed out at the grocery story yesterday!)
So we're all wimps, I guess. Shame on us. Where are you brave ones? We need to hear from you.
My husband is brave. He's going to Menards to buy me a new wood floor and a living room fan. Knight in shining armour, I tell you. Knight in shining armour! (me the woosy princess who needs rescuing and will be sound asleep in my flannel sheets when he exits the house tomorrow am)
Not a chance. There is no sale good enough to make me get out of bed before the sun comes up. I'll avoid all stores tomorrow and instead spend the day with friends and play as much Beyond Balderdash as we can.
I do know people who are shopping tomorrow. They call it "fun."
My kind of fun involves reading, hot tea and a quiet room.
