Its the day before Black Friday and all the through the house, I am looking for Ads without my spouse. My Uncle has hid them as a usually rouse, to get me to beg for the those inserts to use. My cousins and I begin to look at all of the deals, oh what a steal. The lists begin to fly the planning has begun. Some will go south, north, east and west.. to hit all the stores including my spouse. Who gets the kids, each year its a game to keep them away from the mounds of things. By 10 am we are all at home, pens are clicking to see what we owe. I owe you ten dollars but what is this year, I picked up the latest gadget for you my dear. Twenty dollars it was you now owe me ten lets got through out lists all over again. The sun has now shown and dollars all cleared, its not time for Bed... Can't wait till next year.
Okay so its corny but we have this tradition. We go to my aunts each year and my uncle and I have this thing about the ads. He hides them on me each year and I have to go and search for them (even though I have usually bought my own paper). My cousins and I pour through the ads making list of all we want at each store. We divide the stores up and everyone gets what everyone else wants Then we come back to my aunts house and try to figure out what we each owe each other. I think my aunt and uncle get a bigger kick at watching us do this. The funniest part is passing the kids around. If one is going to a store that opens at 5 the person at the 6am opening has the kids and then the 5 am person comes and gets them from the 6am person so that the kids don't have a clue as to what we are buying. It is amazing we have not lost a kid yet.
Anyway... I am very dissapointed at most of the sales but I am sure I will be able to find some things.
Have fun everyone!!
