I understand the meaning..black Friday. Has to do with shopping. Let me get this right..I've saved up my money and my time specifically to go out either very late at night or very early in the morning to "score" a deal at a local store. What is wrong with this picture??? Well, here a few things I can think of without much deep thought...
1. Massive groups of people flinging items about searching for that one particular color, size, shape etc. Ugh!
2. Long Lines everywhere..again, Ugh!
3. Parking blocks and blocks away from the stores. Yep..that does sound inviting.
4. Fighting to find a chair to sit in when your back or legs start aching. Cannot wait for that one.
5. Dealing with the frenzied and understaffed store staff. That sounds absolutely smashing!
..good grief. Don't get it, never have and never will. I think I'll just go outside in the 85 degree, sunny, balmy Palm Springs weather and perhaps take a walk. Maybe a quick swim? Preview some properties? Ride my bike? Sit under the umbrella with my laptop catching up on work? ANYTHING is better than battling the Black Friday shoppers.
I do NOT get it! It's Sunday and the shopping frenzy has subsided a bit from what I hear. I wouldn't actually know because on Black Friday weekend, I get as far away from it all as possible. I live in La Quinta, a haven of the Palm Springs Valley..every single day is a Holiday. Black Friday...what????
