Why I’ve Declared a Black Friday No Buy for 2013

21 Comments

Black Friday

It’s that time of the year, Black Friday! I have only participated at an actual brick and mortar store one year and that was the coach outlet. I said never again. After that, I’ve only done Black Friday online. This year I have declared Black Friday No Buy.

 

 

The product junkie in me is fighting and extremely upset but she will get over it. As tempting as all of the sales from my favorite beauty and hair vendors are, I am going to stick to the no-buy I set a few weeks ago.

I went crazy with nail accessories to bling out my weekly manicures. So I told myself that I was not buying anything other than groceries for the next few weeks. There is another reason for the no buy. If you have seen my hair stash you may understand better. I posted it on the Just Tiki Facebook page some time ago but just in case you missed it…

Hair Product Stash

That’s only part of it. I have wigs that still haven’t been opened. Last year, I went crazy and most of that stuff is still unopened. You are just seeing the hair stuff. I still have make-up, skincare, brushes, and perfumes I still haven’t used. So, I will be in the corner looking crazy and trying to hide my card.

What are you buying for Black Friday and Cyber Monday? Are you on a no-buy too?

    Wow! I’ve never seen so many hair products in one person’s cabinet! This is crazy! Black Friday makes me crazy! I always think there are deals when actually I spin my wheels trying to find them and end up wasting a full day on nothing!

    I almost didn’t go out for Black Friday. My fiancé convinced me to go out and catch some of the great deals. We didn’t head out until way in the after; I say about 3pm. I have to admit the deals I got were worth it.

    I declared it a no buy time because I am not fighting the crowds regardless of how good of a deal it is. I did not shop at all, of course I do my Christmas shopping between 12/26 and 1/1 of the previous year so I am done! Great deals after Christmas.

    I am such a product junkie too… and I also protested the Black Friday sales, except buying some items from Babies R Us for my nieces and nephews.

    I went out with my daughter on Thanksgiving night to our outlet mall, but we only spent 1.5 hrs there. Got some new workout clothes, stuff from Bath & Body works and Justice. Yesterday we did not go out but instead ordered online from 2 stores I wanted stuff from (JC Penney & Joann Fabrics.)

      1.5 hrs isn’t bad at all.
