Black Friday

Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Then there comes Black Friday, day-after Thanksgiving shopping day. They say it's the unofficial kick-off of the Christmas shopping season. Personally I never experience the fun of shopping on Black Friday. We only watched about it in the morning news on televisyen the next day and heard from some friend's experiences. Last year one of our friend told us that he and another friend of him camp out in front of Sears from early evening. He said it was pretty fun and he got what he wanted with a very good price.

I tried to convinced my hubby to join the crowds for many years now without any luck. Not that I want to do all the the camp out thingy, to be honest it's more scary than fun to me, but just to do some quick shopping when the crowds already thin up. But nay, he is willing to pay more and go shopping some other day when it less busy....gheesh!. But it is one big event and I would like to have the experience at least once in my lifetime...hihi... call me pathetic. It's really amazed me that people is willing to camp out in a cold night in front of a store just to do some shopping. And the line was so long. But I guess it worth all the hassles if we get what we want with a real bargain price and at the same time have some fun. :-)

This year Walmart the biggest retailer in the USA start their Black Friday on November 2nd, three weeks before Thanksgiving. :-) Other than that,I saw some bigger store already have their Black Friday's ads out. I surely will try my luck shopping on Black Friday this year but I will do it online instead. Okay, less than 3 weeks to go,so time for coupons hunting now.

Have You Started Your Christmas Shopping?

I do. I start making my 'Christmas shopping list' in September. Then the Christmas gifts hunting begin in October....hihi! Most of it I did online. What is more fun than doing shopping on your convenience time in your convenience seat at home. :-) No rush, no traffic headache -read;no grouch hubby, no long lines and I can get the best deal without having to go to many different stores.

So far I bought three gifts and Christmas day is only about seven weeks to go. Just three so far?....haha....yep, but hey.....as you see I have to take time to do my blogging too, I got addicted to it now. Anyway, I hope will be able to mail my parents gifts sometimes this week or next week so they can get it on time. I still have long list of things to buy so I better get busy soon.
