Not for All the Tea in China- Black Friday Shopping!
When I was a little girl, it was a time when a sale was a sale. ?In fact, if I 
recall, the ?real? sale began the day after Christmas. ??Friday?s were known for no meat (if you were Catholic), not for ?Black Friday.? ?
On December 26, my aunt and mother would pile my cousins and me into the car and head to downtown Houston and to Foley?s..... a 9 story department store in the middle of downtown. ?I can remember just about every square inch of it, from the basement up every escalator to the 9th floor. ?
?
Our target- ? price wrapping paper, ornaments and Christmas cards. ?This was the one time of year when these things went on sale.
?
Fast forward to today.... everything?s on sale all year long somewhere!
?
Some workers are protesting having to work these extra hours to maximize a store?s exposure for Black Friday....others say they should be happy they have a job.
?
I?m on the fence on that one but I do know that I?m not heading into that mess known as Black Friday. ?I wish the retailers well but I?ve been on the front lines of shopping.
?
I want a real sale if I?m to head out at midnight for something... or fight the post Thanksgiving crowds packed with excess energy having spent the previous day indulging in Thanksgiving treats and 8 hours of football.
What about you?
Who?s heading out for Black Friday?
