Black Friday Shopping as told by Gossip Girl

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wisconsin chapter.

It finally arrived: the moment we’ve been waiting all year for, and the one day we can spend endless amounts of cash flow and not even feel bad about it because, “It was on sale.” That’s right people. I’m talking Black Friday. So, in the spirit of tradition, let’s have Blair take it from here.

When you’ve scoped out the flyers beforehand:

When someone cuts in line:

When you steal someone’s parking space:

When you lose the person you came with after five minutes in Target:

When there’s only one Kindle left:

When you get the last Kindle:

When you don’t get the last Kindle:

When the last shirt isn’t your size but it’s on sale:

Deciding to do Cyber Monday instead:

“I bought 4.”

Black Friday is not a walk in the park. However, as long as you stick to the three P’s- a game plan, a pocket full of cash, and a post-thanksgiving nap- you’re in for a successful evening. What are the best deals? And where are they? That’s one secret I’ll never tell. You know you love me, XOXO, Gossip Girl.
