yeah I did not go out on black friday as I was just afraid of the crowds I just like to be at home and I shop online I have two small girls so it is just easier for me to do this!
if you want to give me a review of my website I would truly appreciate it!

Friday is International Buy Nothing Day. A day designed to remind people that "we are not born to shop." Our culture is one revolving so much around consumerism and the buy, buy, buy mentality. This is not how it was meant to be. So for one day, this day specifically, avoid the urge to buy and you'll also avoid the insane masses flocking to the stores in an orgiastic spree.

Hi and thank you very much for that information and will check it out. I probably will go out friday and be brave and see what I can get on sale. It will be crazy for sure with all the shoppers and traffic from other states. Good luck if you go shopping that day.

I am a little late on this, but thanks! I was crazy and let my neighbor talk me in to going to the outlet mall in SC. Tax free weekend and Christmas sales. It was so crowded and you had to wait an hour in line in each store. NOT A JOKE! An hour at least each store. It was horrible. This was at midnight when my patience was wearing thin. What a mess.

I like this idea. It's crazy to think that you have to get up at 4 am and stand in line for hours and jostle with crowds, all to buy stuff when you have nearly four weeks until Christmas, and you can buy the same stuff a week or so later with much less crowding, and possibly for less money.
