15 Things That Went Through My Mind During Black Friday Shopping

The craziest shopping day of the year has some awesome deals and some crazy habits. This year, certain stores opened at 5 or 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, starting the sales early and the madness just a little bit earlier than normal. Through the madness, you can always get some pretty good deals, enjoyment, or just plain anger. No matter what happens, just make sure you get what you stood in line for, no matter what it takes.

Here are a few thoughts that go through our heads while Black Friday shopping.

1. Look, there's a parking spot!


After 15 minutes of looking for a spot, the parking lot is now 100 percent full.

2. Bitch, that’s my sweater and you aren’t taking it!


I didn’t wait in line for an hour and deal with this claustrophobia in this store for you to take the last Small. No, bye.

3. When are we getting Starbucks to fuel my energy?


Nevermind, I saw the line and I can’t do that. It's too much.

4. If it's more than $20, I’m not going to get it.


This is Black Friday, why is it still $130? I am on a college budget, people!

5. This is a mad house. Why I am I doing this again?

Currently being pushed and can’t breath. This is just way too many people.

6. I need to avoid everyone I know here.

Oh, hey! Yeah, college is great. Nice to see you too, I guess.

7. Guys. Let's get food. Right now.


We've been shopping for five hours, can we please get tacos?

8. Could you slide two inches to the left? I need to look at that.


It's the biggest struggle of the night. I just need that one item, but these people are too busy taking selfies.

9. Lady, if you bump me one more time...


I thought I had really good patience until tonight…

10. Where is grandma?

We always lose her when we're on a mission.

11. Should I look at my bank account right now?


Best to go ahead and say no. Don’t look. Just don’t do it.

12. We need to make a trip to the car.


My arms hurt guys, can we take the bags to the car?

13. Look at all these guys!


Single and maybe ready to mingle. Or eat some ice cream. Either way, it sounds good.

14. I made a bad shoe choice, a very bad shoe choice.


Why did I wear the boots with a heel? Why, why, why?

15. Sleep is probably better than this.


The one time I get to be on break from school and instead of staying up all night writing papers, I stay up all night shopping.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
