No, I didn’t go shopping on Black Friday. I didn’t step foot in a store and I was happy with that. The first and only time I went shopping on the day after Thanksgiving was my senior year of high school and that was enough for me!
I spent Friday not doing much of anything. I went to the gym (it was EMPTY!), had leftovers, studied, walked Lola, went to the grocery store to get toilet paper & eggs, ate more leftovers, and went bowling. It was a good + restful day.
I was honestly nervous to go bowling. Am I the only person who freaks out about random things? I really enjoy bowling, but I was filling in for my little sister on our church league and I felt self conscious because I typically bowl with bumpers and know nothing about the sport.
My scores were: 86, 94, and 84. Embarrassing.
The lanes had a holiday theme above the pins 🙂

Today is Small Business Saturday!
I woke up feeling really terrible. I had the worst sinus headache/pressure ever. I took some dayquil, put a hot wash cloth on my face, and drank a bunch of coffee. I’m already feeling better :p.
I think i’m feeling up for a run… we’ll see. Later on I might be going on a double date in downtown Pittsburgh! Catch ya on the flip side!
What did you do for Black Friday?
Are you going to do any small business shopping today?
I’m glad to hear that you’re feeling much better now! Coffee cures all 😉
I didn’t go black friday shopping yesterday but today I’m headed out to hit the gym, grocery store, and maybe Target!
Oh man I’m with you on black Friday, you can’t pay me to go into that chaos haha it’s SO creepy!
We may do some small business shopping today, but I think we’re mainly decorating for Christmas 🙂
Have a ton of fun if you go on that double date! 😀
I definitely avoided any shopping this day as well!
P.S. You won my giveaway for Cumberland Farms Coffee! Please send me your mailing address at simplylife1@gmail.com – Congrats!
I stayed home too. 🙂
Great job bowling! Ha :)) Have fun on your date, Allie.
I haven’t gone bowling in ages!! That would have been a fun way to spend black friday. I spent it cleaning and reorganizing the kitchen, which in a way was really fun and cathartic!
I’m like you! I went to the gym on Black Friday…annnnd got lots of schoolwork done so I’m not stressin’ in a week or two. Maybe. haha!
I might go explore for Small Biz Saturday though — there are sooo many neat little shops here!
I refuse to go shopping on black friday..people are just crazy. I would rather pay the extra 20 bucks and not deal with such crowds! lol
I’m glad you’re feeling better. My mom and I went shopping yesterday, but it wasn’t so bad because we live in a small town, and we went at like 7 in the morning. The mall wasn’t much more crowded than it is on a normal Saturday, honestly. There was nothing we HAD to have, so we just chillaxed and shopped and had mommy-daughter togetherness (as you see it is a small town bc this isn’t what you imagine when you hear black friday, but anyway).
My company took us bowling over the summer and my scores were horrible too! So not a bowler and I get nervous with things like that too, I can see what you would “filling in” for your sis!
Bowling is so much fin…I’m not any good at it but I try.
Black Friday shopping is something that I have alway been into. If I was not working retail on that day I go shopping. I try to stay away from big stores like Wal-Mart, Target and Best Buy….those people can get a little crazy.
AHAHA. Sounds like my life. I refuse to ever step foot in black friday shopping (plus I’m a legit internet shopper for real). I’m glad to hear you are finally feeling better Allie!
Oh girl, you need to bowl with me. You’d feel so much better. 😉 I’m really terrible! And I’m all about playing with the bumpers too. 😉
Your Thanksgiving looks like you had so much fun! I only went to one store on Black Friday but didn’t get up early to go or anything. It was busy but not as packed as I would have imagined!
I did go shopping but not until like 4 pm. Stores still had good deals and no one was there!! I hate crowds! And I am A HORRIBLE BOWLER! I think you would probably beat me ! 🙂
I just got caught up on all your posts girl and I must say I am BEYOND impressed that you cooked Thanksgiving dinner. Umm…rockstar.
On Black Friday I worked on SCHOOL…which I will be doing pretty much every day until Winter Break!
