Day 2 (or 1b. in my case) of this Christmas-y blog challenge is "black Friday/general shopping tips and tricks".
My advice on black Friday? Sleep in!!
I know, I know, I know, this is practically sacrilegious for some out there, but honestly, when you get up at 4 am most days, sleeping until 6 is a rare treat!
Every year mom and I talk about getting up and going shopping. For about 10 minutes. This, of course, is always in the middle of all of our cooking and ramblings about life. By the time the dishes are washed and the leftovers are in the fridge; however, we are have laughed that little talk off and set the coffeemaker for a more reasonable hour.
The point of my story? Enjoy your day, however that may be. If that is knocking somebody over the head in Target for that really adorable pump in size 8 at 4:09 am, go for it!! I will be cozy, warm and snuggly in my bed. (And shopping at 11:00, when the really intense people have gone home.)
Happy shopping, everyone!
PS - if you have any really awesome finds or ideas for gifts, leave a comment! (especially for my brother...he is the best gift giver. so good, it's almost annoying.)
