HAPPY THANKSGIVING CHILDREN OF THE INTERNETER WORLD!!!and besides wild mountain turkeys are so much cheaper_ all it costs is the price of a bullet.i went to the store to buy the turkeys and they where all priced at $75
That’s ridiculous. EAT PIGS!
Holy crap! Where on earth do you go shopping? Last I checked at the local grocer/pharmacy, Wild Turkey is 18-24 depending on if you want 80 or 101 proof.Wait, we are talking about the bourbon, right?
Now that’s my kind of turkey…
lol
Thanksgiving should be about family. That’s what I look forward to the most. But, times definitely have changed. I wish people had the same values that they used to…
Agreed, it’s a shame that the economy is hurting bad enough that companies have to pull shit like having Black Friday start 6hrs earlier JUST to pull in some extra sales, at the expense of family values and such.Also, props on the gravatar! Glad to see you’re a reader of Root Rot as well. :]
We don’t have Thanksgiving here in Australia, but I know what you mean…The day after Christmas is Boxing Day here (please don’t ask me why, I’ve never asked or found out). Basically, it WAS a day to spend with the family (go to the park, beach, whatever) and recover from your Christmas hangover (or for the younger folk, get over that sugar rush and overeating thing that kids do so well)… but a couple of years back, retailers decided that they should open their doors and make more money (and then probably stay home with their own families while the drudgeons do the work).
I’m glad my boss hasn’t done that yet.
Oh really? So do you guys have those crazy ass discounts in Australia too? Some of the deals we have here on Black Friday are really ridiculous! I mean, i get it, we are all broke and we all need to save money on gifts for our families and such.. but it’s just so lame how much it’s exploited and how little care the companies have for traditions… at this point, the shopping itself has become a tradition. Which is just crazy.
Oh yeah, it gets absolutely crazy sometimes! Like, you get the pre-Christmas sales (fair enough, get the presents that came to you at the last minute and all that)… but then Boxing Day/New Years sales as well? It’s pathetic.Nah, my family never bought into that. Christmas Day, family get-together lunch, barbecue and piss-up dinner (just myself, the parents and maybe a couple of others). Boxing Day, hit the beach if it’s hot, or stay at home and do stuff if it’s not. No corporate bullcrap is going to take that away from me.
I wish we had boxing day in the states… idk why, i just feel left out.
The stores only want you to think you’re getting some kind of huge deal. And perhaps in some rare cases you would be. But I think the trade off of having to deal with such a huge and frenzied crowd and giving up time to be with your family is not a fair one. The stores have good sales all year long. Plan ahead, and shop early or make your gifts. Very few people would say no to a plate of delicious homemade cookies.
Interestingly enough, yes you’re correct, you can get some of the same deals all year long on various sites like Amazon and Newegg… Yet we get lost in the fact THAT THERE ARE HUGE DEALS OMG COME TO THE STORES NOWEVERYONEISDOINGITEXPLOSIONS! …but I’ll admit, tonight at midnight I’m gonna try to go grab a copy of Inception for $4.99 at Best Buy… if they aren’t already gone, for myself of course. ^_~ heh
now you’re just messing with me.
