^ As I know, Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving in the United States, where it is the beginning of the traditional Christmas shopping season. On this day, we can buy many things with a cheap price ! Black Friday as the busiest retail shopping day of the year

next year I'll splurge like hell I swear. I'm just getting a 80GB iPod :\ mehh ;_; and my mom is getting an SUV T-T so unfair

I'm so sleepy...

So we went shopping this morning and I think we were at a department store...
Anyways, my mom started sealing things out of other peoples carts!
I think that we had 3 carts full of gifts and things I personally don't think we need.

=_=" I also know everything that I'm getting for the holidays...which sucks because I now know that I'm getting a new camera...and a iPod.

I don't like shopping anymore...

^A new camera and ipod are not bad presents! . I heard that in general, this year's deals aren't that great. I also read an article about how economists and stores don't expect that many sales this year compared to previous years because of the decrease in housing prices and increase in gas prices; people are more prone to save. But we'll see! As of two hours ago, my friend stopped by Bestbuy and said there was still a line waiting to go inside .

^ I know it's great and all...but I can't have them until the holidays.

It's kind-of hard to wait to use them when you know that they are just sitting around for weeks...
Unloved and unused.

lol! Good luck fighting those old ladies, I tell you...they are some incredible fighters!

My parents didn't go today, but last year, I went with them. We left at like 7:00 in the mourning -I know, stupid idea to leave at 7. What's at the store then?
But surprisingly, there were still some items at the store. lol, we also saw a total of two fights breakout between some guys. It was sad, but...funny!

I seriously wish we had Black Friday here in Canada  
Meh, Maybe one day Shica and I will go together That'd make me happy cause I know nothing about the States (never been there) and what's worse, I'm like an hour away from New York  

[legendsofaranna]

Correct, krjeami, there are still a lot of shoppers at retailers despite the lagging US economy. http://www.wral.com/.../story/2080952/

However, this year's Black Friday has the most drastic discounts and promotions. But whether it's debt-based consumption or not, I am still glad consumption is still high.

[pupluvgurl]

Not in my area. The deals this year weren't nearly as great as in the past two years..

I went out once one year for Black Friday, but I'm just not a fan of it.  Waiting outside in the cold for hours before you can get into a store isn't my kind of fun regardless of the type of deals you can get.  If that's your cup of tea that's cool, but it's not for me.  I need my sleep.
