Do any of you go out Black Friday shopping ?

I feel it’s no longer fun as all the sales are already released early and you can just grab it online ! I miss the old times and mall trips at midnight … I may still venture out for fun…. How about you ?

Honestly it was never fun for me to actually be in the store during black friday so I'm pretty graeful they're doing it online. Besides "black friday" is more of a week-long marketing campaign for most major companies so like you said it's kind of lost its appeal. I'm just grateful I can save money lol

Lol I know most of my friends say the same I’m just the odd one who enjoys the craziness lol

I have some crazy memories of hitting stores before dawn and lining up in the parking lots. I remember one year lining up on a very cold morning outside Staples, I forget what we were trying to snag, probably a hard drive or something. And one year at Target at some insanely early hour I was tasked with getting a particular toy, an animated Tigger, for my niece. I raced to the toy department and got one, so I was the hero. These days I'm content with shopping online and not having to elbow anyone in the toy aisle.

It was fun yet it’s nice to have the online option now that I’m older lol
