Mindful Musings

Black Friday 2004 – The OFFICIAL Site for the Hottest Day of the Year If you do not know what Black Friday is, and you are any kind of a shopping buff, you should really look into it. I have been caught up in this craze once, and let me tell you, it is fun.

Basically, Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving when all kinds of stores will have great deals on all kinds of merchandize. The trick is to show up at the right time at the right place. I have stood out in the freezing cold with Jennifer at 5 in the morning to get a laptop at rock bottom prices (my Toshiba) and have also had Jennifer’s mother pick me up a VERY nice leather jacket for cheap. Most shops will post their deals in the weeks before Thanksgiving, especially in the paper the day before Thanksgiving. The link above (among many, many others) list some of these as and when people find out about them so you can be prepared.

For the unaware, this is mayhem, madness and everything in between. It pays to plan. If the savings are not worth the early mornings and the fighting with people to get the last jacket…dont look there, but if you want a good deal, try it one year and maybe I will see you there!
