The whole Black Friday thing has morphed into ignorant people on display Friday. Much like Democrats on voting day.

Will not step foot in a store for any Xmas shopping, most of my shopping is online now, been doing that for years.

I won't go do black friday shopping (especially at Wally World) and a lot of it centers around the feral blacks "shopping" on Friday.

Interwebs is the way to go.

Just like Christmas stuff in the stores, Black Friday is now a month long. Did find a couple of online Thanksgiving day only sales.

Went to the dump today, then to pick up my mail and a quick stop at the hardware store. On the way down the hill followed a Floridiot who couldn't negotiate any of the curves at more than 20mph, but at any straight section sped up to 30.

It's not even 830 am here yet. Heading out to Winco to buy food for the weekend and next week. Not shopping for 'stuff'. Never do.

Tried it one time decades ago before the www. Never again!

I don't even see any decent online sales this year. No tools, TV or electronics. All clothing seems to be fleece or nylon crap mfg. by the same Chinese mill with only different labels and pricing applied to them. Event the so-called high end stuff - Marmot had $20 hoodies, etc...that look no different to me than Walmart quality.

The real deals are when the dollar is strong against the yen. You can go to amazon.jp or the japanese amazon site and get some HIGH quality japanese tools - Koken, Merry, etc...for less than Harbor Freight junk delivered to your door.

Just got back from grocery shopping at Winco. Emptiest I've seen it in the 12 years+ I've been going there. It was excellent. No kids. Now crowds, no wait at the cashier. All set up for the next week so I can spend more time here and less time living my life off-line.
