Black and White Friday
/Friday after Thanksgiving is a big deal. Shoppers and Sellers look to sales; sales at a major discount. The deals are not only Friday, but Monday now - Monday touts to the people shopping online - that’s me. Why bother going to the store! I poo pooed the deals in the past, but Blurb had a 50% discount, which they started a few days before Black Friday! I have used their service over forty times. I often wait for a 30% or 40% special before ordering. I have never used a 50% offering before. Black day specials are real for me now. Maybe it is because I am presently on a fixed and limited income and paying attention to deals. Maybe it is because most of retailer sales come between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so the big push is on. It is all about volume. Why they call it Black, I can only speculate… and not curious enough to ask Siri.
While many were indoors looking for Christmas present deals for loved ones on the Friday after, I delighted with the snow covered trees nearby. What a nice transition from colorful leaves on mountain and river sides, to snow covered branches - branches in galore; nice to see so many decorated branches, usually hidden by the leaves. I have a series of Black and White Friday images at MESipe.com. recent work… and hundreds of tree images, under the tree tab. You are welcome to them. I wish to share what I love.
