black friday to cyber monday...are you ready?

i am sure that most of you have experienced a black friday shopping excursion at some point in your life...crazy lines and crazier people seeking out the deal of the day from all those big box stores.  most years, i try to avoid going anywhere close to a mall on black friday (and even the two days following).  i find that the "privilege" of waiting in line to get into a store then spending $300 at the store to get the $20 gift card to spend in that same store just seems illogical to me.  however, this past friday, i did venture out to some shops, but not your typical mass merchandise kind of places...no...i was at the forum shops in caesars palace in las vegas. i had high hopes of finding a fabulous deal or two like a free body piercing with every full arm tattoo or a free 52" plasma tv with the purchase of every pair of christian louboutin stilettos...
ooh...

as my luck would have it, i found no such black friday specials.  but just when we were ready to give up on our hunt, i found a rather delicious deal...50% off thanksgiving themed chocolates at max brenner.

aah...

 so i bought a few boxes of bonbons and a solid milk chocolate turkey and went on my way, happy with my little black friday treat. i am now ready for cyber monday...shopping at home while eating my bonbons. are you ready for cyber monday?
