Don't these morons realize that by getting up early and fighting crowds of idiots at all these stores, they're not SAVING anything? They're SPENDING!

I have never and will never set foot within 200 yards of a retail establishment the day after Thanksgiving. I don't like crowds and I don't particularly like people. Forget it. They could be giving away stuff for free and I still wouldn't go.

Instead I'm at home enjoying a nice, freshly-brewed cup of coffee with my cat in my lap and enjoying a slow, stress-free morning. We'll probably go for a drive later to look at a few houses. That's it. Easy, simple, low-key, minimum stress.

My usual budget for Xmas is under $300 every year anyway. I don't believe in making a big production of it.
