Saturday!

Today is Saturday. It reminds me of the song by Chicago. It goes like this, "Saturday in the park, I think it was the Fourth of July ". But today is not the fourth of July. haha Well, that song just crossed my mind. Yesterday, my hubby went to Best Buy to get a flat screen computer monitor early in the morning. Good thing he was able to get in the store and get the monitor right away. The monitor was a good deal. It was Black Friday here in the U.S.

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving day, where it is the beginning of the Traditional Christmas shopping season. Most of the big stores were jammed and packed with bargain hunters. Can you believe it? Many people were waiting outside the stores for the Black Friday event since Wednesday night. They brought folding beds, sleeping bags, chairs, blankets or any thing that could make them comfortable while waiting until Black Friday. The stores opened at early in the morning like around 5 o'clock. People freaked out to buy ipods, laptops etc. which are more salable on Black Friday. I bet there were many shoplifters too. haha Heck, I don't want to fall in line and wait outside the store with chilly air. But it might be fun to some people.
