Guilt Free Reminders That Black Friday Shopping Was Worth It

Well guys, Thanksgiving is over and we have less than a month until Christmas. If you were anything like me last week you counted down the days until Black Friday commenced. And while yes, you should have been listening to Great Aunt Carol and Grandpa Joe talk about the finer times of life; but we all know you and I were both checking out the bags, tops and beanies and how we were going to smash and grab the minute our feet got over the threshold at F21. Its okay, we’ve all been there and here are some reasons why we won’t be regretful this year!

Once-In-A-Life-Time-Deals

I mean seriously what other time will Aeropostale have 60% hauls?! Never that’s when. And don’t get me started on the Buy 3 Get 3! You and I both know that we got 12 and our sweater game will be so strong come spring semester.

Technical Family Bonding

So maybe its not exactly the same as playing Yahtzee or Monopoly for 6 hours straight but nothing brings family together like a cramped line outside of Bath and Body Works am I right?!

Limited Time Items

So Black Friday just so happens to be in the middle of the best season for delicious smelling perfumes and body scrubs. So it’s totally okay to buy half of Bath and Body and all the statement sweaters at Delia’s and Macy’s because when else will this be acceptable? It’s okay,my room look like a mini mall too. We can cope together.

Freebies

Let’s not forget about the freebies! Who doesn’t like free stuff? I mean granted you have to buy stuff to get free stuff buy hey not complaining here. I’m pretty sure not going Black Friday Shopping and getting free stuff is a cardinal sin…well at least it is in my world… and everyone who went Black Friday Shopping for an Apple Product at Target in hopes of spending enough for a FREE Gift Card…No just me? You missed out.

So my shopaholics, free yourself of post Black Friday shopping. You have the rest of the year to wear all the things you’ve bought and to convince yourself you really needed that sequenced glitter mini and cropped sweater. I know I will.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"

It's not always fun being fun-sized!

Appalachian State University National Writers Society

I'm the Short Friend. I've been the Short Friend since about the seventh grade. I'm the one who stands in the front of the photos, gets made fun of for their height, and still shops in the kids department.

This article is not for the Almost Short Friends, i.e. the 5'3" and 5'4" Friends. No no, this is for the Actually Short Friends, i.e. the Barely Scraping 5'1" and shorter Short Friends.

The Relatable Date

Don't deny it.

They talk to you like you're one of the guys, but you will NEVER EVER be included in "Bro" things

Even though you've heard the words, "Not you, a real girl" more times than you can count.

You need to caption almost every picture with a disclaimer that you aren't dating...

But at the same time, you never know whether or not to be offended when they say they'd never date you...

And your other friends are constantly telling you you were destined to be with each other.

You'd get all the girls if you were a boy because you walk them through how to get girls almost daily...

That being said, you have an opinion on EVERY girl they show you, and you aren't afraid to share it...

But they have opinions too, and that's why they'll be the first to tell you when a guy isn't treating you right... and then they'll do exactly the same thing to some girl a few days later...

And if they do happen to have a girl in their lives, she most likely hates you, because you know him better than she ever will...

But even after all that, you wouldn't trade them for the world.

No, I actually don't pay for my friends.

1. "You pay for your friends."

2. "All you do is party."

3. "You guys all look the same."

4. "You don't actually care about your Philanthropy."

5. "Bigs and littles are stupid/annoying."

6. "I would never want to be a part of that."

7. "You're wasting your money."

We get it — we're frustrated with you, too.

1. When they go out of their way to help you.

2. When they are cleaning up a section of the store.

3. When they deal with your children being heathens.

4. When they listen intently to your coupon problems.

5. When they ask you about opening a credit card or rewards card.

6. When you have to wait to get an item number or to talk to a manager.

It's not always fun being fun-sized!

1. Not wearing makeup is like stepping in a time machine

2. "Wow, how tall are you?!"

3. You don't realize how much you're craning your neck until you talk to someone as short as you.

4. Hugging your friends is just asking for a face full of boob for you and makeup on their shirt for them. Awkward.

5. You face retail discrimination
