5 Best and Worst Black Friday Stories
bgr.com

As I was looking for inspiration through refinery29, I found an article that talked about different stories people had shared with them about their worst and best stories of Black Friday. Now we all know that Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving, and it's when the biggest sales of the year go on for either the whole day or a couple of hours. But, during these hectic hours people show their true colors. So just to make all of you laugh I thought I'd share with you guys some of their funny stories and laughs.

1. "One time, I was at Target on Black Friday and someone in front of me in line paid for their TV with two huge plastic jugs of change. It took forever because the cashier had to count it out it was something like $200 paid for in quarters, and people were so divided. Half the line was pissed, and half thought this person had totally won Black Friday."

2. "I was at the mall with my sister, and we were packing up our car when a frazzled couple with a TON of bags came up to us. They said they would give us $20 if we drove their stuff home for them because their car was full. We agreed but realized on the way to their house we totally could have driven off with it, they didn't ask our name or anything! But of course we delivered it and loved that we actually 'made' money on Black Friday."

3."My friends from college and I used to go to stores on Black Friday and take people's Starbucks orders from line. We made some money, but it was also really fun spreading holiday cheer!"

4. "I went to Macy's at 2a.m with my then boyfriend and his stupid friends my junior year of high school. I got mad that he was only paying attention to the xbox games instead of me, so I walked home on the freeway. I broke up with him as soon as I got home."

5. "I remember when I was little and not allowed to do Black Friday with my mom, so she would go with my grandma, and every year they would bring me back a snow globe from JCpenney."

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
