"Black" Friday

[rosethecopycat]

A radio commercial by Winn Dixie (grocery) poses that if you have fussy, demanding in-laws coming over, that you should buy your entire fool proof Thanksgiving day meal from Winn Dixie, to impress them. The best part, they say, is that you don't have to 'lift a finger'!

Isn't that what it's all about anyway? Not showing any effort for anything.

It's about standing in lines to spend money, and theoretically save a few bucks, and be the first one to have the next latest thing on the market.


Thanksgiving is officially canceled.
It will now be known as BLACK THURSDAY and it will last 2 days.

I have to work Friday morning after thanksgiving, even though my workplace is closed all day and there's no reason we couldn't come in later except majority vote of people who want to get done early. I have to strip a gym floor and wax it.

I don't do black Friday. I don't spend big money on electronics unless I research them and where to buy them so I don't get stuck with a lemon. You can find better deals when its not holiday or tax return season, when stores are more desperate to make a sale.
