Friday

<span style="color: #3333FF">Good morning, Jamaicans.com.

Who's still sleeping off the turkey?

Who woke up early this morning for more and is going back to bed?

Who has been up since 3am to be at the stores when they opened at 5am?

Enjoy your day, everyone. </span>

<span style="color: #3333FF">I was watching truTV last night, &quot;Dumbest Shoppers&quot; or somesuch. They had all these stories of people bumrushing the stores on Thanksgiving Friday.

I'd considered getting up early to catch a sale, but it's just not that serious for me.

This one in LI, someone said the people are savages, but it's the stores that set the employees up like that. If you advertise that something everybody wants is 50-90% off for only four hours and then only have about 50 of them in stock, what do you expect is going to happen? Not only that, but knowing that something like this happens every year, you can't really be thinking about your employees if there are only a handful to control and serve the crowds. </span>

Good Friday Morning

Never shopped on Black Friday, although, I heard some places really have fantastic sells, especially on electronics.

I am not a shopper in general sooooooo Black Friday I would never do.

I saw that (((MrsBlue))), the two ladies prevented the one lady from cutting the line, and all the other people went ahead of them. I would not deal with those crowds or stand in the cold for free stuff!
