I was able to grab lots of Christmas gifts for cheap. I really do love shopping after Thanksgiving.

I was out looking. I did mostly window shopping. I didn't know what to get for a few family members, most stuff just didn't seem to look that appealing!

A new pair of pants for $14.95 (half price) and an Amazon Dot for $29 (normally $50).

I worked and spent around $3.00 on yogurt and pretzels.  I did save by utilizing the Ibotta app and a sale they were having at work.  Rather than spending money on family gifts I'd rather do something more productive with the money we would spend on stuff.  Like sponsor a child or volunteer.

Nothing that was really worthy of a Black Friday sale.

I used to have fun doing Black Friday with my daughter.

We don't do that anymore.  She has a day to rest from busy work schedule, and I just chill and avoid crowds.

There will be great sales all through the holiday season for us to grab up.

I'm sure there are lots of great deals on Black Friday, if you do your research and know where to look!  Unfortunately, I never get to participate in Black Friday, because that's our traditional Thanksgiving Day.  It's a compromise we made when the kids started having families of their own.  We get them all on Christmas Day, and all the spouses' families get them on Thanksgiving Day!

No because I did not do black friday shopping this year

I don't usually mess with all the black friday fuss. I would rather just keep an eye out for good deals and gifts throughout the year than make a big rush of it now.

When I was in my 20s and 30s, my mom, my grandmother, and two of my aunts would get up at 4 am on Black Friday, bundle up, and wait outside a store with all the other shoppers until finally rushing in with everybody else when the store opened. They'd buy their discounted stuff in all that ruckus and then come home and marvel over all the great buys they'd gotten for Christmas gifts.

I, on the other hand, have never, ever gone Black Friday shopping. I'm just too anxious a person to survive that kind of ordeal! I know some folks thrive on it, but I just avoid Black Friday shopping at all costs. Kudos to those who brave it, though! :present:

I went out and browsed and got myself a set of pajamas for a good price. I'm unsure what to get for everyone this year so I have not really Christmas shopped yet.

I did not do any shopping on black Friday. I was tempted though because I went to Walmart the night before and saw they had some things covered up for black Friday. I just wasn't in the mood to be around large crowds of people.

I did not shop on Friday but the great thing is that those deals are starting earlier and the week and lasting longer.  So I did get some great deals.

I used to love Black Friday shopping, then I took a seasonal job in retail last year.  I am forever turned off of Black Friday.  Cyber Monday deals -- oh YEAH!
