We are getting closer to the big day, are you ready? Most say they are sick of the wait and can't take it anymore. Of course I am talking about "Black Friday". 

Yes the day you brave the crowds and take the risk you may be trampled when trying to purchase a 56 inch flat screen, like they are not going to make more; and you will never get it at the Black Friday price if you don't act the day after Thanksgiving.

Now comes the "Kill Joy" Wall Street Journal saying that after examine pricing data for up to 6 years you're likely wasting your time.

They  conclude the best time to get a good deal is not likely the day after Thanksgiving. They found gifts are priced below Black Friday Pricing at various times throughout the year and even other times during the Holiday Season.

Now you've been warned, the big day is coming and I am not talking about the election. Black Friday, just say no, don't participate, don't be a willing pawn. a useful fool in this crazy tradition. We don't have a presidential election for another 4 years, but Black Friday comes every year. Their, that's my 60 seconds away from Mitt and Barak.
