Sure. But you are obligated to get up very early that Friday morning for "deal busters" deals to buy things you don't really want or need but are on sale.

As for me, I stayed home for Thanksgiving Day. For "Black Friday", I worked and had to deal with angry customers, some equipment was down.

Really?! I live in a small town and both of our grocery stores are open to 6 pm on Thanksgiving.
