black friday

A question that keeps running through my head and has been since Friday, is "when did Christmas become so materialistic?"  When did the true meaning just disappear and turn into fighting over who could get the maximum number of  the latest gadget.

The crew of Mix 94.1 will be busy on Black Friday. Come see us and take advantage of the great sales. Plus, sign up to win a weekend getaway for a family of four to the Gaylord Texan.

With Black Friday looming over us like 'The Perfect Storm,' it reminds me of people lining up at the starting gate for the Boston Marathon. We all get to the starting line and await the gun to fire to signal the start of the race, as we search for the 'best deals of the season.'

Black Friday deals are insane and it makes sense that people want to save a ton of money on these great deals.  However, some people go to the extremes to get their hands on the greatest deals including camping out.

In the midst of retailers looking to start traditional Black Friday festivities at the first possible moment the Friday after Thanksgiving, Walmart is expected to announce that it will do them one better. The company has decided to open at 10 p.m. the night of Thanksgiving, so its customers can get an “early” start on shopping.
