Today is Buy Nothing Day

Hope you all had a wonderful Turkey Day yesterday.


Today is the day traditionally known as "Black Friday" where "Day After Thanksgiving Sales" run amok at retailers who offer low-low prices in anticipation of the holiday shopping season.


It is also Buy Nothing Day, in which we restrain ourselves from buying during this frenzied shopping weekend. Since I've never really found Day After Thanksgiving Sales all that enticing to begin with, I am once again resolved to not buying anything today (and saving my purchases for next week).
