Well, that was my last laugh of the day. I’m off to have turkey dinner with the family.

Between hunting and football....Thanksgiving was ruined years ago.
Hubby would show up late after hunting and my father in law would get furious.
Then after pigging down, all the men would fall asleep....and snore their heads off while the women cleaned up their mess.
At least we have our own money to go shopping these days.

I’m trying to assess who might be the bigger idiot - those who spend their time camped outside of some department store in the hopes of getting cheap crap at a steep discount or the one who drives around shouting incoherently and harassing them.
Happy Thanksgiving ;’)

One of the few things crazier than sitting in line on Thanksgiving is taking time to go out on Thanksgiving and ridicule them.

There is no chance at all you’ll ever find me in a line to buy merchandise. I would never shame those who are in line.

I didn't like the term "Black Friday" at its inception and still don't like it for a number of reasons. I refuse to use it....and wish my fellow conservatives would eschew it, also.
It was foisted on us a couple years ago, and it was mindlessly embraced by sheeple who don't even know what it means....i.e., nothing at all except as an ugly term.
Except I wouldn't be surprised if the BLM movement will adopt the phrase from now on as a catchy title for its marching and rioting activities the day after every Thanksgiving.

Freedom. I want to be able to have off to celebrate Thanksgiving, but I don’t need everyone else to. I am Thankful we can choose our own lives.

Heaven forbid that people do what they want.
EMTs, police, firefighters and military people work every holiday and no one thinks a thing about it.
Retail people have to work on Black Friday and you’d think the world was ending.
Most retailers make 1/3 of their annual sales during the holidays. Lose a day, lose a lot. That’s how they pay people during the slow times when they are losing money.

Camping outside a store for hours just to lose your money for temporary stuff. Won’t get any competition from me.

I got my targeted Black Friday uber-bargain during my lunch period online yesterday. I have long lusted for a Kitchenaid Artisan mixer, and when my old Sunbeam broke its handle and developed suspicious reddish spots on its blades, I decided THIS WAS THE YEAR. And I scored my target mixer, in a beautiful color, for the equivalent of less than half price. There was a rebate in the form of a Visa card, a 15% store discount on everything, store "cash" I can spend in the store (lots of things I purchase in this store), a rebate from my credit card and a rebate from the launch site to get to the store website. I stood in no line at all. Oh, and free shipping! Today, in a few minutes, I scored a nice cover designed for that mixer for 40% off AND a very unique resin planter so perfect for my reptile terrarium that I had already designed it in my mind. Imagine how great it was to find it actually existed AND was 40% off, with free shipping.
Do NOT denigrate Black Friday shoppers. The ones in line just apparently don't know how to do it Online.
Happy Thanksgiving, my dear fellow FReepers!

What Thanksgiving Day tradition? I read that people used to work on TG AND Christmas, and that it was Progressives who urged them to take a day off for the “people’s holiday.” Normally good Christians and Jews already take a day off per week to honor God. Lincoln didn’t call for a day off work, but Wilson and FDR did.
