    I got a second hand ThinkPad W520 for about $30USD. I already have one, but this was too good of a deal to pass.

    Hmm… I think I ate blood sausage with lingonberry jam, potatoes and sauerkraut.

    So that’s about all I bought. No sale or anything.

    A drink and food at a local spot. Wasn’t a black Friday sale or anything, but we stopped in.

    Didn’t chase any sales or buy anything of note. Don’t need much.

    Nothing, I don’t exactly need anything at the moment. In fact I almost forgot Black Friday existed…

    I must admit I was a big spender. I was on the second last day of my cruise, so I went a little wild. I spent $2.55 on the Guitar Hero cabinet in the arcade. No regrets.

      And how much did you spend on that cruise?

        About $10! I was lucky enough to be brought by my aunt, so I only had to cover the room charges (taxes on a few drinks at port, and of course, Guitar Hero)

          🤦🏽

          Congrats on your vacation, I go on them also.

          But you must realize bragging about not consuming when going on an environmentally disastrous cruise vacation is ironic, even if your aunt did the spending…

            That was meant to be part of the joke. I definitely realize it’s ironic, don’t worry.

      For a moment, I was confused why you would buy your wife pregnant clothing before you knew she was pregnant with a girl.

      Actually, technically she’s having the girl. You get to be the pet dad. At least that’s how it works with mine.

      I got many tikits today from her. I got a sitting down tikit, a standing up tikit, a moving tikit, a tikit just for being daddy. Once I corrected her spelling I started getting tickets for other imaginary violations. And then she was done.

    I didn’t even pay for bus fare. I biked to work, biked home, and ate leftovers. Suck it, fake corporate holiday!

    Nothing, and I don’t plan to buy anything except normal stuff through January, either. I’m not doing Xmas this year, so very easy to avoid the spend.

    Nothing.

    We’re supposed to be holding a boycott until Dec 2nd.

    Y’all are fucking pathetic who broke the line.

      It’s far more pathetic to set a deadline for your boycott than to buy something on black friday. You think your boycott has a meaning if you’re that sad about it?

      I’ve been boycotting all big companies for a year nonstop and your group can barely do it for a week before crying and just buying anyways

      I never heard of this boycott. If it makes it any better, I didn’t buy anything from a big business
