Black Friday
I had every intention of waking up early on Black Friday and making it to Target to pick up a 37″ television for $549. I really did.
I even contemplated heading over to CompUSA between 9pm and midnight the night before to pick up the same television for $599. I figured the $50 I’d spend was worth not having to fight the crowds and wait in the cold.
In the end, sleep won out. So, my daughter Piper and I got dressed and out the door about 8:30 am on Friday. Our first stop was Target — “Those TV’s were sold out in 3 minutes” someone told me. Next stop was Hy-Vee for breakfast. Then on to K-Mart to check on a couple of their “deals” before heading home.
In the end, I bought only food on Black Friday. I suppose I’ll have to contribute to the economy in a different way this weekend.
Happy Holidays!
