freesia39 Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 We all have stories about Black Friday, now let's create our own Black Friday story. How it works:Each person will write one line of the story in their post. JUST one line. The story should be Black Friday related somehow. Each post will build on the previous post. AND THAT'S IT. NOW LET'S WRITE! (imagine you were watching Anchorman, right before the big Anchor fight, when Ron Burgundy was laying down the rules.) I'll start. It's November 3, and only a few Black Friday ads have been leaked, creating anxiety and apprehension at the lack of ads and deals. 1
Brad Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 That anxiety is increased for a certain owner of a BF site because more ads in less days = less sleep and more expletives
Bopeep Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 But he continues year after year because he knows he is bringing happiness and excitement to hundreds (thousands?).
bossy1 Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 Knowing his time is short ,he checks all the grocery ads to make sure he stocks his fridge with all of the DEALS he's GOTTA have to get him through the long sleepless nights to come.
Kash Posted November 4, 2017 Posted November 4, 2017 The site activity increase, while frugal shoppers anxiously await to make their lists.
Kanyon71 Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 Those behind the scenes helping the site owner, prepare for an incoming flurry of ads to be typed up.
Doresia Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 As the site's members anticipate sending and receiving gifts, ornaments, and Christmas cards to and from all over the country.
Tara3117 Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 When suddenly, our fearless leader gets an email!
Peppermint Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 The email sends our Brad into a frenzy. It couldn't be! Our most beloved store has announced they are cancelling all Black Friday sales this year. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDEAL
Kanyon71 Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Leaving everyone who was counting on the ad, staring at their screens mouth open and dumbfounded.
Kash Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 The explanation the store gives: "To allow our employees time off, to shop BF with their friends and family for once"
BFgrl79 Posted November 8, 2017 Posted November 8, 2017 How can this be?!? Is Black Friday cancelled?!?...
angelicswtnss Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 What a cruel cruel joke they played on our Brad!!
Peppermint Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 As Thanksgiving dinner came and went with family and friends, the clock ticked on. "What will I do?" I exclaimed. It was quarter to midnight on Black Friday eve when I received a PM from Brad... Sent from my iPhone using GottaDEAL
Kanyon71 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I just received word that it was all a ruse, the sale's are on and not to be missed.
AuntieJul Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I sprang out of bed, grabbed my phone, my trusty GD hat, my tabbed flyers for price-matching, my car keys and, like a reindeer on Christmas Eve, dashed madly out the door and slid into the driver's seat - and as I turned the key, a light flashed on the dashboard: the car was dangerously low on gas.
Peppermint Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I took my chance and drove 2 miles to the nearest station, barely making it, but I forgot it doesn't open until 5am! Sent from my iPhone using GottaDEAL Edited November 9, 2017 by Peppermint
Kanyon71 Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 What to my wandering eyes should appear? No it wasn't a sleigh or a reindeer. It was the gas station manager who must have been dragged from bed. Would he open the station or would my car sit here near dead?
bribri25 Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 More rapid than checkout lines his employees they came,He jumped and shouted and called them by name: Now, Bob! Now, Sue! Now, Alex and Brian!On Sally! On, Jake! On Kate and Ryan! Sent from my SM-G930V using GottaDEAL mobile app
packratfamily Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) And what to my wondering eyes did appear but Brad, ready to join the throng of shoppers. Edited November 16, 2017 by packratfamily
freesia39 Posted November 17, 2017 Author Posted November 17, 2017 Brad said "you want a tv - i can help you find a great deal on that!"
Kanyon71 Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Without delay, out came the iPad. Already logged onto the BlackFriday GottaDeal site. Without haste he went right to work.
nirvana4all Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 Checking the ads, the opening times, the blackfridaycharts.com he found some options right up his alley, at stores opening soon!
