After celebrating Thanksgiving the past week I have noticed that Half of every person I know, instead of being with their family, were outside of Walmart in the cold just to get 30% off all their needs. Now Black Friday is a really cool day don't get me wrong but, I don't know why people would rather spend things that aren't even necessary at the time just to get a good price on anything they can get their hands on. And what I don't get is that a day before Black Friday we celebrate giving thanks for what we are already blessed with, yet the next day you go off spending your money on anything you can find. Isn't it just simply a stupid time of year to do that? Of course it's really good that the prices are low due to the fact that the economy is bad but still, If Black Friday was celebrated a week before Thanksgiving I would be fine with it.
Me and my family went off to the mall and everything was gone, all the shoes, clothes, supplies, and furniture were just gone. And this was two days after Black Friday! Now I read a newspaper that said more than four of the five things that stores sell were gone the day after Black Friday and I believe it was in Spanish for some reason. That's crazy! While I was gobbling up on ham and turkey while watching the cowboys play everyone was shopping! Therefore Black Friday should be celebrated another day other than the one after we should spend time with our family with.
