Black Friday was different for me this year. This money series really made me question how and why I was staying up all night shopping so I decided this year, I’d skip the madness. Partly because I wanted to spend less money and partly because this Christmas is going to be much more intentional (more on that Wednesday). I’m not going to say it was easy though. Everywhere I turned, people were talking about the great deals they were getting or how much fun they were having in the madness. It’s crazy, but I missed it.
That isn’t to say I didn’t get a few things via online shopping or late Friday afternoon when we headed out for some specific items (not Christmas-related stuff). I tend to just buy stuff for myself when I go out on Black Friday (I really have no restraint) so it’s just safer if I stay home or, in this case, take my husband with me.
I ordered these online from Kohls:
I ordered some stuff from Gap/Old Navy online–shopped for a few others and snagged some mint colored skinny jeans for myself. They were $31 after coupons so I couldn’t resist!
