Yeah you guessed it, I missed the day-after-thanksgiving shopping. I called up one of my friends and he cursed me out for not going with him. I can’t be blamed for not going because I love my sleep and I need it. In New York the stores start their early bird sale from 12 midnight; in Atlanta majority of the stores start their sales around 6 AM. I don’t know when other cities open their stores but 6 AM in Atlanta it’s just too early for me; may be next year I’ll go but only if I get enough sleep the night before.

I remember two years ago Wal-Mart made $1 billion in sales on the day after thanksgiving, which was a new record in retail history. One company made $1 billion in one day is unbelievable. I was amazed but I wasn’t surprised because Wal-Mart annihilates any competition with their large stores and competitive pricing of quality products. No other store can match Wal-Mart, obviously since Wal-Mart is the largest company in the world and their not kidding when they say “every day low prices”, and they say it with a smile.

I called up my friend who was shopping with his girl friend, and he told me he saw a 32 inch plasma TV for $500! I was blown away and I regreted that I didn’t go.

My advice to you all, don’t make my mistake, take advantage of today if you haven’t gone yet since the day is not over yet. This day comes once a year so don’t miss out.
