I did not. I did shop online from my recliner chair.
We had our new refrigerator delivered today at noon. So far, I love it.
I took advantage of some online sales - some Bariatric vitamins and protein shakes, and an outdoor light-up Christmas pug lawn ornament. Great deals and free shipping.

I only left home to take a walk. I wore sunglasses no makeup. Enjoying a day at home. Turkey stock is done and I am unpacking decorations. Watched Pittsburgh upset Miami this morning. I bought a few things on line from sites with no brick and mortar stores here, Tea Collection, PurseN and Lupicia. Peaceful day.

No. I worked in retail for 8 years and it was enough to make me NEVER want to shop in that kind of madness.
I refuse to miss Thanksgiving dinner with the family in order to be at the stores on Thanksgiving Day, and I refuse to get up super early to be out on Black Friday. I will do some online shopping and I will go out and shop the small, local places. But never where it's crowds of people.

The only shopping I did was for the cat: brushes and food. I thought there would not be a Black Friday sale at PetSmart; I was wrong. But it wasn't packed with unruly shoppers, and I did get a nice discount on a case of cat food.
A bit of other shopping online.
In the morning I saw a movie, and in the afternoon I roasted a Turkey breast.

Last year I shopped on Black Friday at my local FRY'S GROCERY STORE!!! They have an amazing home decor and clothing department and I really scored with zero crowds. Nobody ever thinks to shop at a grocery store for great deals on Black Friday. Last year I bought my parents an outdoor patio heater, and pajamas for everyone, and other clothing items. It was great.

No black Friday shopping here...I was not opposed to online shopping but could not find anything that interested me.

I did go to an arts and crafts show at the convention center. It was crowded but very civilized. Then did some online shopping.

Sort of - I didn't go to actually buy anything but my best friend was in town so we had lunch and then walked around the mall. So it was more of a stroll around talking event than it was a shopping event.
Back when I worked retail in college I loved working Black Friday - shoppers were always in a festive mood and they came expecting the long lines so they didn't get impatient. It was like a big party. Of course I worked in a department store so I'm sure that was better than working at walmart or Best Buy or something.

Kmart is next to my gym and it was empty yesterday at 10 a.m. I got some stuff I needed for the house but that was it.

My daughter lives about 2 miles from a great shopping area in Pittsburgh. The weather was great so the walk was very pleasant. It was somewhat crowded but not too bad. We got some good deals at Gap, Athleta, Sephora and Target.
