Black Friday Shopping - Watch out for those "deals"

As we are getting older, we expect change to happen.  It certainly did – iPad, Google, EBay, etc. has made our lives more interesting.

Along came “Black Friday” that was always the Friday after Thanksgiving.  Now low and behold, it has been moved to mid-October, right after Halloween.  Most, if not all of us, are just planning what we’re going to serve for our Thanksgiving dinner.

Most retail stores are starting their Christmas discounts.  Now it’s understanding that they want to get rid of old merchandise to make room on the shelves for new items.  They are pushing TV’s because in 2012 all the older sets will not work (new technology).  Be sure to ask the sales people if these are new or old models. 

Since I became a computer wizard (not really a wizard, a one finger at a time typer), I could now shop on the internet (I think I’m modern – haha).  But that’s not for me.  Somehow, I am one of the few that do not want to shop without touching to see if it scratches, or trying it on to see if the size is going to fit.

Wonderful wishes and happy smiles.
