I've made it pretty clear that I truly dislike shopping. I get claustrophic and hungry and clammy all at the same time. People are often rude and invade my personal space and I quickly freak out and have to leave the mall, or find a bench to rest on. But then I start freaking out about the number of germs I'm breathing in from all the people walking by me. Basically, I'm a disaster in malls.
In open malls, like at outlets, I do much better. If I feel claustrophic, I step outside and get fresh air. And being out in the fresh air in between stores helps refresh me a bit.
All of this leads me to say that going shopping at stores on Black Friday is pretty much out of the question. So instead - I do most of my shopping online.
And my big purchase today - Hanky Panky underwear. Wow - I really wish I could've splurged on something a little more exciting, but what can I say, I love me some Hanky Panky's. And it cost me a total of $0 because I had a store credit (from the store messing up a previous order - they gave me a big credit). I'm pretty pleased with me one and only purchase!
Now, we're off to get some thai food! Happy Friday!
I have never been shopping on Black Friday either. Last year I spent Thanksgiving in Mexico with my family and we saw the mobs at Wal-Mart on t.v. Later that day we asked my 8 year sister if she wanted to go shopping around town in Mazatlan. She replied, "No, I don't want to get pushed." Haha!
