Black Friday deals |
I talked about Black Friday yesterday and you would not imagine the amount of craziness that has occurred from midnight till this hour. What is Black Friday? It is the day after Thanksgiving in USA. Apparently lots of companies slash the prices of a lot of selected items. It helps them balance their account or so. Anyway it is a real sales gimmick and discounts range from 20% to as much as 60%. Go Figure! It was only done in the US but nowadays the event has gone global.
Even the online malls or websites of the companies give discounts but because of the rush the websites usually crash. As for me i can never partake in it. Why? Just check out the pictures below, prepare to be shocked and laugh. People ain't smiling at all.....lol

A lot of the deals are really cool but i don't think i can bear a broken bone. I can swallow any pain killers because of a T.V but for those who have the strength and body frame to survive the mayhem i say go for it. So did anybody get any good deal today?
That is all folks. Hope you enjoyed today's post. Thanks for stopping by.
Luv ya,

Mami, I dunno if this is weird tho' buh I really can't go through this kinda hassle just cuz of a 100 dollar slash....I would rather buy something for 200 bucks than get trampled on just cuz of black friday.....Naaa...not gonna happen!
ReplyDeleteHonestly if I was getting like ten items with $100 discount on each which would total to $1000 savings i might be tempted to try going there but what I found ridiculous was people going there just to buy one item. It is so amazing.
ReplyDeleteLwkmd! But nawa oh
ReplyDeleteNa real wa....lol. How are you doing?
DeleteHahahaha. Me o...I will rush for anything as long as I get to save me some extra cash abeg...I didn't partake in this year's black friday sha...wasn't interested. Maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteSee you, you like extra money. Okay o prepare yourself for next year then...
DeleteI can't let them write "crushed to death in the mall" on my obituary so I think I'll pass
