The term Black Friday originated in 1950s Philadelphia, coined by local police officers to describe the chaotic day when hoards of people came to town after Thanksgiving for football and shopping.
Today is also "Buy Nothing Day" (ha ha.) The kids are going downtown to the Pike Place Market, Uwajimaya and probably the giant Goodwill. I'm running on slow gear this morning so will probably take a rain check on that.
“Whoever said money can’t buy happiness simply didn’t know where to go shopping.”
Gertrude Stein
