Finally bought Star Crap 2 for 20$. Didn't leave the house.

We dropped a little over $300 at Target... And that about does Christmas! We might get one more big purchase or a couple more small things for stockings but that about does it.

I love watching people act like animals at stores. Okay??? Can't I just have that?

Look at these fucking animals:

TDarcos is slipping in his old age. A completely missed opportunity to manually count every store in the country having a "Black Friday" sale and compare it to fifty million.

If he doesn't respond to this one and tell us how impossible it would be to manually count every store in the country hving a "Black Friday" sale, God is dead.

And if he doesn't respond to THAT with a quote from somebody in regards to saying "God is dead," motherfucking Christmas is cancelled.

Well, better than the scrambling animals at Walmart, anyway.

Most Walmarts have a sign posted at the front door barring weapons from being brought inside. This means if you are a legal gun owner and have a conceal carry permit you cannot bring a gun inside the store. However if you are a bad person who is already planning on breaking the law, then Walmart's policy doesn't mean much to you.

Posted warning or not, I don't think I'd get within a hundred feet of those Black Friday mobs unarmed.

Pinback commented to my Black Friday Facebook post about feeling superior to the crazy shoppers out there. All I have to say is that I wish Stand Your Ground laws were more valid in WalMart. That would make a much more satisfying video than watching grown people act like starving hyenas around a wildebeest carcass.

That does make me feel superior.

Doesn't the whole sales event last four or five days now?

Grey Thursday
Black Friday
Small Business Saturday
?
Cyber Monday

Seen quite a few shops say "fuck it" and have either one or five day sales to cover all their bases.

Black Friday has been terrible. It seems all the good deals were yesterday. Apparently Gray Thursday is the new thing?

We have a long list of things we purchased for our kids today but none of them can hold a candle to high quality boxers or boutique brand saddlebags.

We're going sledding.

I'm sure everyone here is eyeing a new video game, television, hamster wheel or specialized hobby item (maybe an All in One board) that is now on sale this holiday season. My list is rather more mundane, treading into the "I am now an adult" territory:

1. Bras for hapticanimal ($400 worth of $61 bras at 25% off).
2. Boxers for myself (nearly a 50% discount and I bought a high quality brand in bulk)
3. Undershirts (buy one get one free!)
4. Leggings for hapticanimal (20% off)
5. Replacement hydration pack reservoirs (10% off quasi-military spec from a brand that is highly rated).
6. Bicycle panniers / saddlebags (15% off a boutique brand from Washington state)

I hold off on semi-major everyday purchases until Black Friday as the smaller / boutique brands I usually purchase from feel obligated to give some sort of discount (even if they are the least able to afford it).

Anyway, anyone have any better stories of catches for this consumer holiday?
