I don't think it's a big deal to shop. If we didn't get invited over anyone's house we were going to stay home and relax like it was a regular day. I don't see the big deal in shopping. I care more for the people being asked to work that day, but if they don't mind working, I don't mind shopping. There are plenty of hours in the day to do spend time with loved ones AND shop. This will be only my second time ever participating in black Friday deals because I usually have to work on the Friday after, but of course this is also the first time they have been offered on Thursday night. I wont be out on Friday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6894899490428676091.post-66451133746960217122012-11-20T23:55:52.931-05:002012-11-20T23:55:52.931-05:00I will not be there for sure.

Probably never will.<br /><br />I can't believe Black Friday is still as big as it is since online shopping is commonplace now. You can snag a deal online almost anytime of the year -- there are so many deal Websites now!<br /><br />But yeah, no Black Friday for me.

I admit they are good deals but it's not worth all the craziness and it does take away from the holiday. I get my shopping done early so I don't have to worry about the holiday crowds. I will instead spend those days eating too much food and watching movies with the girls. Hopefully some good Christmas movies will be on.A Haute Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760962476881427564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6894899490428676091.post-53091884735216431512012-11-20T08:16:12.057-05:002012-11-20T08:16:12.057-05:00I've never been one for crowds when shopping. ...I've never been one for crowds when shopping. I guess I'm more like you a leisurely shopper. Best Buy had Black Friday deals open yesterday to Premeire rewards members yesterday only and that was good cause we were able to buy gifts for the fam since we'll be celebrating Christmas and Thanksgiving Dec. 2nd instead. I do think its a shame that so many of these retailers have decided to commercialize Thanksgiving. Pretty soon I just think no holidays will even be looked at as family days anymore. Retailers claim there is a demand from customers for the extra day, employees of some retailers have been protesting. Who knows where the truth lies. I like you think certain days should be left sacred....as family time.

The horror.... I'm not sure if the shopping takes people away from their families or not though. Most of my friends who do engage have made it into a family ritual where their entire family takes part in the madness together and look forward to that as much as the pumpkin pie lol <br />I've found that you can indulge online and avoid the madness, so Internet stalk your wish list if you can!
