Ah rats, another vendor is going out of business.......VapingMe

Two of my favorites are gone. Super-T Manufacturing and Metal Madness Vapors. Well MMVapors still has a very minimal web presence but all their well crafted good looking mech mods (Poldiacs) are no longer offered. Super-T gave up what with all the inexpensive Chinese stuff. MMVapors decline was brought on by the Greek economy problems month's back.

I've been to one Black Friday sale and that was so many years ago, don't even remember.
There is no way on God's Green Earth that could get me to go to one now......nothing, and I mean nothing is that important!

It's all BS anyway AFAIC .. driving consumers into a feeding frenzy, almost bordering on hypnosis .. in order to buy goods that many don't need and then charge that to a credit card that ends up costing as much as what they bought over time .. Black Friday ends up overshadowing Thanksgiving itself and is nothing more than Madison Avenue's creation to sell more Chinese imported wares .. much like another Holiday, Christmas .. ;)

Happy Holidays .. ;)

I think what is really sad is with the deeming nightmare we are going to be seeing many more vendors vanish one by one as they realize they haven't a prayer of staying in business long term. SO many things working against them, the economy, deeming, counterfeiters to name a few.

I have not been to a Black Friday sale in years either. I don't do crowds, and people are selfish fools. I did a little online shopping, but nothing big. I let the kids do the Black Friday sales. We went out for a nice breakfast (their treat of course) and they are off to sales. Gotta stop back by, though, cuz they forgot their leftovers!!! Fortunately not really out of the way because they can drive back to Tampa the back way (19 to Veterans Highway as opposed to I75).

They only get driven if they want to be. Stupid is as stupid does, but to each their own.

I am all alone in the house. There are so many goodies (leftovers) in the fridge - Apple Crumb Pie, Chocolate Fudge Cake, Home made Sugar Cookies, but I am trying so hard to be a good boy and leave them alone - Oh the pain - the pain...

Luckily it is not a Key Lime Pie - I would have already been all over it - many times over...

No Gumbo today unfortunately. Hubby got the crud I have and didn't go to the family get together so no turkey carcass to use as the base. I will write down the recipe next time I do it.

For us it is hot roast beast sandwiches with Aus Jous for dipping as I made a big roast beef yesterday in the crock pot. Leftover Apple Spice cake for dessert.
