We went out to a few stores (Ollie's and Goodwill), but we give our son money and each other a few small items, so not much shopping to do. Neither of us handle crowds well anymore so we would rather stay home and shop online.
I agree with you. Neither of us like crowds and we dislike shopping so we do most of our shopping online.

I just had a thought - It's a good thing your neighbors can't see you dancing out there all alone. There's no music when you're doing it so they'd probably think you've lost your mind!!
That's why I don't do a dance when I fly up at the front of my property. I mean, like, the neighbors already know, but there's no sense in fortifying their opinions. All 9 property owners have been here for many years so there aren't any newcomers to surprise.

As I like to say, if you can see my house and you're not in an aircraft, you're trespassing on my property.

I can dance like nobody's watching, as long as nobody's watching.
Except for a little camera. Now the whole world has access, once you post it on the internet, hey??

Then, you know that your neighbors know that you are a bit nutty. What is wrong with them getting further confirmation?

Well, did everyone get in their Black Friday shopping (LOL). We went out to two stores with our daughter - she has to try it on to buy it... I guess we spent about 1.5 hrs out and about - the rest has been done online so far...
I had to work Black Fridays for too many years to enjoy them. I do like to go to the mall or Barnes & Noble & sit & watch people, tho. Just not on a Holiday weekend.

No, no, no, you just don't understand, 3mg and Iffy. Here's how it be:

When I did the dance, nobody was watching. When you was watching, I wasn't dancing any more.

My daughter does not like going shopping with me - even when we are shopping for her.

I sing with the Christmas songs being played in the stores - she stays several steps behind me so no one knows we are together... :D:eek::rolleyes:
That is so nice! She should sing with you!

So let's see, we had Brown Thursday, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and coming up - Cyber Monday. I think they need to invent a few more...
Take It Back Tuesday?

Isn't the day after Christmas Day the biggest for returns?
Always. But lots after BF, too. People fight to get stuff, get home & in a few days the 'what was I thinking' thingie hits.

Yep. So it is this year. Brits call it Boxing Day--like get your gloves on and fight your way through the returns line.
Canadians also seems like it had something to do with the people that box up your groceries or something like that. I could be totally wrong on this but I remember something like that from when I used to work a job that went to Canada 5 nights a week.
