I turned on the computer yesterday, and right on the Yahoo home page was the question, which has better Black Friday deals, Walmart or Amazon.
For holiday shopping I like Amazon. I can find what I want without having to
deal with crowded stores, waiting in the checkout line, trying to locate the price
because the tag is missing, plus it saves gas. I can make as many trips to Amazon
as I want and never leave home.
As far as who has the better deals, well I want a product that is made here in the USA,
so I know the quality is good and if there is a problem, I can contact the manufacture.
Parts will be available and it helps to keep Americans working.
Amazon links are on the top right of the screen.

Black Friday is close again
Well folks , that shopping day called Black Friday is looming closer and closer. We can
buy stuff at big discounts to get the holiday shopping season started, but can we.
I heard some news on the Black Friday deals and it was'nt all that good. It seems that some of
the stores put up lesser grade items for that day and are able to mark down those items, or
they only have a few like 3 or 4 if it is a big ticket item like big screen tvs, so on and so forth.
Now I know when I am shopping for a big ticket type product, the price being down
would be nice, but an inferior product is not worth anything if it does not last. The cost
even on sale is still a big chunk of change, so I do not like the idea of just buying it because
the price is right.
Happy shopping and have a great Holiday season.
This is just a once a year post, and I still love the holiday season.

The Black Friday Blues
You know it's coming the day after thanksgiving,(black Friday).
We have to get up at a very early hour,stand in line for a couple of
more hours, or we are at the back of the line, then the stores doors open
and we are pushed in.
Now that we are in there is no time for browsing, just getting to
the product that you came in for is a trick all by itself.
We are now in line to pay, and it seems as if the rest of the
shoppers were a lot quicker than us so now another line to stand in.
Okay, I got through all of that and now it is time to head to
another store to pick up another gift and I find that it is out,
and I will have to spend more time searching more stores and
dealing with the traffic driving or walking.
It must me fun or we wouldn't be doing this.
Have fun.
