A New Black Friday Open Thread

Did you survive Thanksgiving Dinner? Hopefully this product was not on the dinner table.

There is no way I would go out shopping today without one of these. So what did you do today?

Open thread until WeirdDave shows up with The ONT.

1 I went out today. Someone last year said they always bought turkeys on black friday. Glad I didn't pass on the pre-holiday special cuz the birds were back to standard price today. But I did get the horse feed I needed and bought a ham that was still a decent price.

80 We have started the 'family tradition' of having brunch in the morning, everyone brings something, and buffet is nice and relatively stress-free. With all the toddler grandkids, I just thought it made more sense for me to have the little brunch and keep things relaxed before the kids have to get dressed and on the road to the inlaws. Traveling with toddlers can make holidays a nightmare, so a small gathering before the high drama works well for us on all the major holidays.

$5<18#
$10 over 18#s

i got a little one. we weren't going to do turkey, but, at the price, why not?

had a really delicious sample at Trader Joes, their new sour cream doughnuts.

then, about 30 minutes later, it became apparent they are made with soy...and it was an unpleasant hour or so, which may have passed already.

which is to be devoutly hoped for, as opposed to running for the bathroom for the next 24 hours.

210 Cramonnaise is what we slather on the leftover holiday turducken at the Annual Black Friday Festival of Vulgar Indulgences.

Pro Tip: Hollow out a loaf of pumpernickel, stuff the remaining bird(s) with sausage and secret sauce and enjoy!

211 had a really delicious sample at Trader Joes, their new sour cream doughnuts.

then, about 30 minutes later, it became apparent they are made with soy...and it was an unpleasant hour or so, which may have passed already.

which is to be devoutly hoped for, as opposed to running for the bathroom for the next 24 hours.
