Fearless Friday - BFS

One would have to be fearless to go out and shop during Black Friday.  It was almost frightening to hear the police spokeperson to remind people who will be out today to be careful where they keep their wallet, phone, etc.  They want shoppers to be aware of their surroundings specifically the parking lot.  I would think that this is such a scary day then why would you go.  Unless you like the line up, people getting trampled, pushing and shoving and attacked at the parking lot, then I am guessing this is your kind of shopping.  Jeff said that if he can get a deal through amazon where the shipping is free and you don't even have to leave home, no line up and no traffic, then for him it's the best way to shop.  This year we agreed that we will not go wild about Christmas shopping, instead we will pick out gifts that are truly practical and useful.  Some of the stores even opened shortly after thanksgiving dinner yesterday until very early morning.  I guess I love my sleep and prefer not to get up very early to check out what deals I can get.  Honestly, the truth is we don't really need anything and if we do we can just get it later when it's much more pleasant to shop.  We plan to get some of the gifts between the first week and second week of December.  Check out this photo from last year.  If you are in fact going, please be safe and hopefully it's worth it.
