I refuse to participate in Black Friday, because of things like Wal-Mart. I don't understand people one bit.
But I guess if our economy wasn't so horrible, maybe people wouldn't be so utterly stupid.
And sadly enough, I bet none of them feel guilty, because apparently getting their sales were the most important thing. I'm glad that we value materialism over life nowadays.:cer_no:
Many people asked me on Thanksgiving night at work if I was going shopping on Black Friday. I said that I'd much rather pay the extra money than wait in lines and get pushed around in crowds and be around thousands of people all day. I'm clostrophobic, and I hate being around large numbers of people.. so it just doesn't work for me. Plus, I'm not the patient type.. and waiting in lines for hours is just not my idea of a good time. My sister went.. she seemed to enjoy herself.. it's probably not as crazy around here as it is in bigger cities.. but we still have some pretty stupid people around here.
As for me.. I went to Best Buy on Sunday and they had some very good sales going on. I was able to get a fairly recent movie for only $10.
