buy nothing day
/I am seeing posts about opposing Black Friday. I agree with them, mostly.
I don't go out on Black Friday. I can't stand the crowds.
I know some people who start shopping at midnight on Thanksgiving Day. It is their "tradition." My mother's idea of family outing was going to the mall. But there are better ways to spend time together with family.
And really, the ads are a come on to get you hyped up and in the stores.
If you have the day off, enjoy it with your family. There will be other times to find a good deal.
