I have always been wary of any type of sale, Anne-Lise! I bought a jumper once; a week later it was on sale....at a higher price!! Also, sales deceive people into buying what they don't really need. Hugs // paul

Good one, Anne-Lise...I don't like to participate in Black Friday myself. It is so counter intuitive to having Thanksgiving celebration a mere day earlier. Great monoku, 7!

A truthful one line, Anne-Lise. When I first heard about a Black Friday, being that I am a black person, without knowing what it entailed, I thought it was something cool. Ha ha ha. Until, I found out what it really meant. Oh boy. Love the poem though. Love always.

Hi Anne-Lise, This is a good monoku. I don't bother with "Black Friday" it's too much of a "stampede" for me. People everywhere, they will trample right over you:-)Alexis
