I can remember when Black Friday was just getting started. You could leave your house at 6:30A in the morning, be at the store at 7:00 and there might be a line of about 20 people. Now you have to give up your Thanksgiving and wait on line until 5:30A . . . that's just plain nuts. I don't need anything that badly regardless of the bargain it appears to be.

It's crazy. Last year, TV ads had people rush out of the house with the Thanksgiving dinner leftovers still on the counter, to get a jump on black Friday by shopping Thanksgiving night!

Aw, heck, why don't they just drop the pretense and make Black Friday a year-'round event?

Thank Buddha I'm a minimalist.

I basically only shop at thrift stores and online. I mostly forget retail.
