***Black Friday***





Everyone refers to diamonds as a girls best friend, at this point I have to disagree! Black Friday has got to be better than Christmas itself! Sales galore! Signs everywhere read 25%-50% off! BUY ONE GET ONE FREE! HALF OFF Storewide! What more can a person ask for. Being in the christmas rush, fighting over the last item with a 70 yr old lady, being elbowed by people that are desperate for what you have in your cart. These certain individuals have prepared for this day for the past year. Living and breathing for the friday after Thanksgiving. Coming up with strategies and contemplating on how they can get to all the best sales of the day! Spending endless hours in lines that have been forming since the morning of Thanksgiving! One could possibly question where the fun would be in all the long lines, and waiting for something that feels like it's never going to come, i'll answer that for any of you non-believers out there. All it takes is two words "Great Deals" knowing that you only paid $15 for that sweater that would have cost you $50 the day before. Stretching that $100 budget (Adria) that your husband so sweetly put you on right before you left the house that morning. Thats what us women live for! Getting the most for our money! So why question, unless you experience it first hand you will never truly undertand the meaning of "Black Friday"! When the day is done and all the shopping has been completed, we sit and ponder about the many things that we had anticipated for. I couldnt imagine not taking advantage of those priceless 24hours. Luckily for Nate, all the mayhem didnt steer me away from reality, something we like to call, being financially wise. The total amount of all my purchased items for that day came to a total of $30! wow, anyone that has gone shopping along side of me knows that that took some serious strength! Dont worry, my christmas shopping has yet to start! Let the fun begin!
