Black Friday

I can't think of a time I ever went shopping on Black Friday... I don't mind lines so much but the getting up and shopping at 3am isn't something I would be excited for.

My black Friday, sofar, has consisted of sleeping in till about 9am and then heading out for a coffee and doughnut run. I layed around for about an hour after getting up but after seeing all my Facebook friends talking about their Black Friday deals I decided to start shopping online to see if I could score any. Amazon.com was my first stop and I am proud to say I scored a Real Simple 1yr subscription magazine for $5 (for me), The newest James Bond DVD for $5.49 (for the hubby, shhhh!) and Back to the Future the Trilogy for under $11 (for both of us). (I also bought my dad something but he reads this blog so I won't be sharing that info!) I will continue to search the internet to see what other deals I can find...

I am really curious to know why people do go wait in the long lines at ungodly hours... Are the discounts really that great? Are they selling iPhones for $20? What amazing deals am I missing by staying in bed? Please share your bargains, I really want to know!

I just picked up a copy of Real Simple Magazine...

...and I love it! It definitelly is a fun magazine for a DIY-er. As some of you may know, I design jewelry. I don't know about you other jewelry designers out there but I have such issues with display. As I was flipping through Real Simple I came across an earring organizer which I think would be really cute to not only organize your earrings but to also display them... ahhhh, see where I'm going here!

Check it out, you too can build your own organizer for all those pesky earrings... And while your at why not buy some more! ;)
