What are you getting YOU this Black Friday? Or, well, I suppose anything else you're looking for this Black Friday. As we're all YM we can't pay for anything full price. So what are you getting? Or are you the cream of the YM crop and eschewing it all??
Me?
I found a surround sound set with a sound bar, sub-woofer, and two speakers to go behind you that are bluetooth for $150. I don't entirely need it, but I've watched movies with surround sound and my bro's and it's really nice and I don't do so great with silence so being able to easily play music house-wide with it's bluetooth will help me play music over the tv. (My laptop speakers aren't that loud, and it's kind of a pain sometimes to turn on my desktop that has the nice computer speakers on it.)
I'm also hoping to score a decent Samsung tablet, but I haven't looked at which one exactly yet.
Also, it seems like a lot of makeup I use is going to be on sale.
Might try to snag some board games for cheap too.
Also realized my Fire TV on my second TV doesn't have quite as many channels as my Roku, so I might be looking for a steal on a Roku set. Which Apple TV went cheap so I could log in to all the movies my bro has bought digital copies - but not sure I wanna spend $80+ for the privilege when I can just borrow his physical DVD copies.
All of the things are available online so no fighting the crowds for me!

I don't go shopping on Black Friday. I don't really enjoy shopping much anymore, and especially dislike fighting the crowds. I'll be doing most of my shopping online this year.
I don't really need anything and we've spent so much money this year that we're only going to buy for the grandkids.

On Black Friday I avoid the stores like the plague. I hate the crowds, parking lots and lines. Our gift giving has become more simplified and I do most of my shopping online.

I might need a new TV. We're trying to decide if it's worth looking for on Black Friday.

I need a new winter coat. Not sure if I'll actually find one in Black Friday, but I'll at least keep an eye out when I'm out shopping. I could also use some new clothes (jeans and work tops), so I may look for that stuff...except I probably don't want to hassle with trying stuff on.

Often things in several sizes. I try on at home and then return 75% of it. If you have an outlet near you, Columbia tends to have good prices. Though luck be with you if you decide to go on black Friday!

I do a fair amount of online shopping for myself, so good call that I should just do that for black Friday and return what doesn't work. And no Columbia outlet near me, so no danger of braving those crowds.

I refuse to participate in Black Friday because I find that term racist.
