BLACK FRIDAY

WHO REALLY NEEDS THAT CRAP ?

OK , who went shopping yesterday on Black Friday for their Christmas gifts ? I know I never do and find it amazing that so many people go into a frenzy of spending activity the day after Thanksgiving. Doomed to consume I guess most are.


Remember when this poster showed up after 9/11 ? Kind of sums it all up sadly these days. Lets buy everything we don't need and then some. Shop till you drop , or better yet shop till you are maxed out on your credit cards. The American flag in the shape of a shopping bag !!!! Jeez please.

Why not give some of that cash to a charity or to a really needy family ? Enjoy some decorations around the home with friends and family and have fun together and a special meal or two. Buy a token gift for your loved one and the younger ones in your family. I said a token gift, like a reasonable and personal , thoughtful item and stop the f+++ing madness.
