I have pre-black friday shopping anxiety...

[The_Princess's_Mommy]

So, I did my research...made my lists...checked them twice...and I SHOULD feel all prepared for my Black Friday shopping.

So why do I feel so anxious?!? Why do I feel that I'm going to miss out on something, or waste my time in one store or another??

I'm being irrational and silly, I know. And yes, this is a lighthearted post, I'm not really crazy. But tell me I'm not alone in my irrational anxiety...there has to be a fellow deal-lover who is as anxious as I am!

Because of your OCD...
In a good way...
I would suggest that you re-read all the flyer's and re-check all your online research just one more time...Perhaps there are updates on facebook or other social media outlets that you missed the first time.
Let no stone be unturned

Double check with your DOT for road closures & construction updates.
Shop with researched confidence...
Shop Hard - Move with Purpose...
Be the Best You Can Be...

Good Luck To You...
But stay out of my way...Or...

Here is my solution...shop online. I am done with both Target and Kohl's. I even had time to hem and haw and change my mind several times with Kohl's. Walked away from the computer and came back three hours later.

Seriously, the last few years, I have had that anxiety too, but this year with the openings on Th, I decide to forget that whole thing. Now I don't have to worry and can relax. I even made my pies while I shopped!

Tomorrow before we leave for the ILs, I will check TRU for video game prices as they are not up yet.

Good luck!

I have black friday anxiety, too! Except that I am a retail manager and hate the craziness I have to work in!

I also agree - get done today what you can get online!

That will relieve a ton of stress - and cut down your shopping list for tomorrow (or later tonight if that is the case).

I think you are doing great! And if you've forgotten anything, there will be more deals as it gets closer to Christmas.

Have a great time Black Friday shopping.

This is why I don't do Black Friday!! I just told my husband this morning.....even though I haven't shopped BF for years, the commercials get my blood pressure up because I can feel the anxiety of missing something!! I can't imagine how it would affect me if I actually shopped that day!
