Black Friday shopping

[jdailey1981 155]

Yep, it is that time of year again...people are already planning out Black Friday like it is some major strategic military plan, and it is all over facebook. Who is participating in it this year?

I am doing my annual Black Friday tradition....NOT participating in Black Friday, saving myself bail money, and a huge headache, however, sitting back with a glass of wine and a cigar after thanksgiving leftovers, and watching the news, and seeing how many crazies got arrested for acting stupid. God bless tradition:)

As a general rule Black Christmas Eve ends up being my primary shopping day. Every year I plan on getting a jump on it, and then....

Oh I shop like no tomorrow on that Friday it takes me awhile to find what I want.

I did Black Friday like 8-9 yrs ago before it was what it is today. I'll be sleeping in. :)

I would rather have a root canal than go shopping the day after Thanksgiving. But I might spend some time perusing Amazon.

Some wait until Cyber Monday anyway.

This is why my family celebrates Festivus. Their is no commercial aspect to it and the Airing of Grievances and Feats of Strength don't involve standing in ridiculous lines in ungodly weather.

 

Also, if we can knock off Wisky or O$U to become bowl eligible, I will count it as a Festivus miracle.

But what about the rest of us?

Amazon prime if you don't have it, you need to get it!!! Did 90% of my Christmas shopping on there last year.

Black Friday is a holiday for your wife, unless you are the wife.

I thought that was called Valentine's Day.

I thought that was called Valentine's Day.

And Christmas, birthdays, anniversary, Saturdays among others.

Real men do not shop on Black Friday nor eat quiche. Real men shop as little as possible no matter what day it is. They DO NOT shop on Black Friday!

I shop on Black Friday.... I will explain myself. I scout out the biggest deals on the best Christmas gifts and attack it with a couple other guys and buy as much as possible. Normally spend around 2-3k on Black Friday and then turn around and sell everything for 5-6k. The days are horrible and people are nuts, but that's my Christmas money every year.

That's not shopping, that's working.

Drinking with the brothers has become a tradition on Black Friday for the last few years. Much better than dealing with all that nonsense.

I can't stand morning and evening traffic.. I'm sure shopping on BlackFriday wouldn't be any better, as a matter of fact, I know it wouldn't... I could get my hands in the idiots in a store.

It's probably the most miserable couple of hours ever.
