Black Friday Ads Overload

Emails over the last few days have created an overload on Black Friday Deals. The advertised sales from many of our favorite stores - Costco, Sam's Club, Michael's, Walmart and others - are getting our attention. The problem we have while reviewing these ads is to separate "must haves" from "would like to have" from "wish list" items. The other problem is to make sure the windows for these sales (which are all different) are times when we are available. I can see us now - starting at Costco at 8 AM on Friday, making it to Sam's Club by noon, getting to Walmart by 3 PM and making sure we hit the Sales sales window at Michael's between 4 PM  and 9 PM. Whew! There are some great prices so make sure you check them out.

The wind yesterday didn't allow for much outside activity although I did take a 6 mile bike ride. The dust was blowing all over everything and it took a long time to get all the dust off the furniture late in the afternoon. It picked up again during the night just when I thought it was done.

We're getting closer to decisions on how we plan to spend the next several years. The plan needs to be implemented before it gets too late to take advantage of prices and before the best deals go away. We'll let you know when it all is in place - it shouldn't be much longer...
