Does anyone in here venture out to shop on that day?
I don't do it because I think the people are crazy & it's been my experience that most things advertised can be purchased online on Thanksgiving Day.
I've never wanted any material thing so bad that I've been willing to camp out overnight in order to get it.
Hell no. Did it once, and only once. Never again. I spend the day recovering.
Oh Hell No. I don't like going to the mall for any reason, much less to get in on "The Sales" Fuck a bunch of that
Might be camping this year.
NO!!!
That would send me over the edge of sanity.
Nope. I think it's insane. And every year Black Friday starts earlier and earlier. Now it's Black Thursday.
It's been a long time since I've been in a mall. I pretty much strictly shop online only.
NEWS FLASH...Black Friday will now be held tomorrow.
My Sister In Law and her hubby do every year, and generally are buying something that they've searched for in advance.
They're very happy doing it.
BTW, Steely Dan's 'Black Friday' has moved on to my favorites playlist recently.

It's like a holiday to some people. They look forward to that day and it is planned down to the most minute detail.
A few years ago I got on a mailing list for Black Friday ads and they've begun to arrive so that's what inspired this thread. You couldn't get me out there for love or money, I'm perfectly happy to do my BF shopping early Thanksgiving morning in my pj's from the privacy of my home office. ThankYouVeryMuch.
I don't do Black Fridays but I usually stay up and order online at Midnight.
No, I hate getting up in the morning as it is. Much less camp out at Walmart and be stampeded by a bunch of fucking losers after a 10 dollar DVD player. Not my cup of tea.
I drive my son to school at 7 am and there are times I'm laying in bed an think to myself "fuck it, he has a B in algebra and can afford to miss first period, I'm going back to sleep." Do you really think I'm going to get up for black Friday.
I'd be absolutely frantic if I woke up and it was already daylight.
