the $ plus somebody obviously wanted off really bad to ask for it at the last minute.

My boss is bringing me turkey and dressing (though that could have been
just a lure to get me to work). I'll miss my mon's wonderful oyster dressing .

The one time I ventured into a store on Black Friday was several years ago
when both my sons were dating girls I liked... . Belk's had a great deal on fleece robes...$40 for 2 $50 robes. I was happy...they were thrilled!

8) Do you participate in so-called 'Cyber Monday' and the internet deals? Do you shop online very often?

Only for books and sometimes for Priceline deals. Don't do the 'Cyber Monday'
thing.

I'll be working the whole time and I manage to find ways to amuse myself.

Almost got run over by some guy trying to beat me to the one free buggy
in the parking lot at K-mart one year. Got in my car and went back home.
