She's On The Money: Black Friday...Possibly my new favorite shopping day

I participated in Black Friday for the first time two years ago. It was pure foolishness so I said I'd never do it again. Ever since, I've talked bad about the people who shop with the herds and masses on this ridiculously advertised shopping day.


But this year, I decided give it a try and I went again. This time I went to not one store but 4 different stores! All I could think about was capitalizing on the sales. I think I single-handedly helped save a bunch of retailers with my purchases and excitement.

I haven't felt that excited about shopping since China. The prices weren't as rock bottom as Asia but they were close. It felt good knowing that I was getting what may be the best prices of the year.

Yes, I do realize that the prices may continue to go down but I've never been one to need to keep checking up on prices. However, I also love the fact that even with all the great prices, I still can change my mind and take stuff back.

But what a surprisingly good feeling I got from shopping with the masses. I didn't see that one coming.
