Over it.

If I hear another Black Friday commercial I might scream! I love to shop..love and enjoy it. I used to love Black Friday. Since I can remember me and my mom would go.. At 5am every. Single. Year. We couldn't wait to scan the ads thanksgiving morning and map out our plan. We were being crazy y'all. We would park at kohls at...wait for it.. Wait for it...4:45AM! We would run through the door with everyone else and just start grabbing shit...shit we didn't need but everyone was crazy for it so we did it too. We would then get in a line that wrapped around the store and we would take turns shopping while the other waited. We were genius. We would be at IHOP at 9am and home to decorate at noon.

Gone are those days! I remember 4 or so years ago when we went to kohls at 4am..we got there at 3:45. That was nuts. 

Since we moved to Maryland my parents go to Texas for Thanksgiving so my mom and I haven't shopped in a few years. The last 2 years I recruited friends and we shopping in the middle of the night like crazies and both times I felt very let down.. Sales aren't that great and the loss of sleep is not cool! 

This year, I'm pissed. Nearly everywhere opens on thanksgiving night. That's not Black Friday! That's stupid, inconsiderate and greedy.  

Happy Shopping from a bitter Black Friday fan!

Update: Black Friday has come and gone this year. I did not partake. There was one time today I sorta felt the urge but I didn't give in. I slept in ..had breakfast with my family, we decorated the house and we snuggled all day in our pjs and were totally lazy. I think a new tradition came alive today.
