Well, even with the crowds & parking, I can definitively say that Black Friday was worth it for me. The amounts I spent were all what I originally wanted to spend, but the quality of what I got was so much better than I anticipated! An out-of-this-world feeling for a year when we had to cut back on the gift-budget. Some of my favorite deals-of-the-day:
- A pair of sterling silver earrings, normal price $39.99, Black Friday price $11.99.
- A pair of black boots, normal price $70.00, Black Friday price $14.99.
- A Macy’s scarf, normal price $44.00, Black Friday price $23.00.
- 2 camis, normally $8.50 each, 2/$10.00.
- Something else I can’t say in case my husband reads it, but I saved $65.00 there!
I got pretty much everything I needed except for my brothers, but once I get those…Bang! My Christmas shopping is done. Which is really the most surreal part of the whole experience–I’ve always been a straggler when it comes to gifts, always needing that thing two days before and rushing around to try and find it. Now, the aura of relief is palpable–I can sit back and concentrate on Christmas cards, sewing projects, dyi/eco-friendly wrappings…it’s a good feeling! Now onwards to try and snag some older online deals for the bros…
