If you are like me, you are so don’t want to see any more food. You have stuffed yourself, on Thanksgiving Day. Most of you will be reading this post after hitting all those early morning Black Friday sales. Some of you will be waiting for the Cyber Monday sales.

Yes there are some great deals out there. However, there are some published deals that are not really deals. On Thanksgiving Day, I got an email from Amazon.com. It was telling me about some great deals on selected items.

Since I am currently looking for a 15″ Acer laptop for a family member. So I did some price comparisons. Amazon.com was showing me a of price was $349. The same laptop from Wal Mart the week prior to Thanksgiving was selling for $318.

Just a few days ago, I was talking to this lady, who with some friends and family members head out to different stores on Black Friday. They text each other as to which stores have what price on which items. The individual that is at that store, where it is cheapest makes the purchase for those who are not.

We are less than two months away from Christmas Day. The holiday shopping seasons officially starts in less than three weeks, with Black Friday. Already we are starting to see hints about Christmas shopping, and where the best deals will be at.

Commercials from Wal Mart stating the best deals will only be from them. Kmart has ran some commercials about how we need to use their Lay-A-Way plan as part of our Christmas shopping. Many other stores have already started displaying Christmas decorations.

Websites like TheBlackFriday.com have been posting what items are being sold and for how much. Then retailers like Target are wanting you to create an online account to see their Black Friday deals. Even the online retailers like Amazon.com are offering special deals from Black Friday thru Cyber Monday.

It is FOOTBALL SEASON!!! The first local, college, and pro football games have been played. It is time for the tailgate cookouts, and weekend football parties. It is time to have friends over to watch and cheer our favorite teams, while we snack on finger food.

This the time where energy runs high as player battle on the gridiron. Fans are loyal to their favorite football teams. Colors are displayed proudly as we cheer our teams to hopeful victory.

We make each and every game even more special than it is. It almost becomes an infection where people to let football mania take over there lives. In doing so money is spent on t-shirts, hats, banners, and other items without thinking of family budget. Being a football fan can get expensive real quick real easy.

My wife and I are not huge football fans. We watch the game on TV when our favorite team is playing. If we are given free tickets to a game we go.

We have been talking about attending in one of the local college games. (That is BSU. Go Broncos!) The cost of tickets  around between the 30 yard lines on each side of the fifty, along with all the extras would run us about $200 person.

Are you ready for tomorrow? Tomorrow is the biggest shopping day of the year. Have you been getting all those fliers in the mail? Have you been getting all those emails letting you know where big saving are going to be happening on Black Friday?

If you haven’t been getting them, you must of have been cut off from any contact with the outside world. Local and national news has been filled with there own versions of where the best deals can be found on Black Friday.

Today is Thanksgiving. It is a time of food, family, and friends. The day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday. It is when store offers blowout deals to start off the Christmas Shopping Season. My sources have all been telling me that this is the most optimistic Black Friday in years.

This last Saturday, the family and I went into Wal Mart to pick up a few things. That row in front of the cash register was a racks of coats. All ranging in the $20 to $40 range.

My first response when I saw all those coats was, “they could really keep me warm on a cold day”. I am sure we all have bought at one time or another a great looking or really cheap jacket. Then when the first cold day hits that jacket does not hold body heat any more than a thin sweater.

Personally, I prefer the layered approach when it comes to bundling up for a cold day. I start with a t-shirt, heavy shirt, sweat shirt, and then a jacket. This way I can peal off the layers as I need too.

How does The Shopping Nazi relax and unwind after a long hard week? Go Shopping? Yes, go shopping, but just any place. I like to go shopping at yard sales!

I am not into extreme sports. I do enjoy time with my family and friends. However, in the summer time when it gets close to Friday every muscle in my body starts to twitch. My thoughts start thinking of where I might in search of a yard sale, and what I might find.

Have you ever wondered what Shopping Day is like for The Shopping Nazi?

When I say Shopping Day, I refer to that day twice a month where we restock and upgrade. This day corresponds to the day my wife and I get paid. It is, usually the day we are off work. Yesterday, was one of those days. I thought it would be good for you see how we go through our shopping day.

It is not hard to give a woman some money and say, “Get a new outfit”. Some may like it to turning a kid loose in a candy store or putting a guy in the tool department at Sears.

I must stop here and give you a disclaimer. Like any red blood guy, when it comes to shopping with their wife, it can be quite a traumatic event. I give my wife a rough budget. She walks into the womens clothing section and I head the other way.

Most of the time when a sales person asks if they can help, their end goal is to get as much money out of you bank account and into theirs. This was not the case last Thursday.

That is what happen on January 21st, 2010. After going to several discount clothing store, my wife just could not find the right dress or outfit. Then she walked into the DressBarn.

Christmas and New Years is over. We are 16 days into a new year. Most businesses use this time to regroup, examine profits and plan sales strategies for the 2010. Other stores are trying to unload unsold products.

After looking around, I see a lot of businesses who have closed their doors. There are still others who are downsizing. I cannot help think that all the stores that are currently empty and have gone out of business was because of driving customers away.

I know for myself the way I am treated by a business determines if I go back or not. Below is a list of the top 5 things that annoys me about a product or service.
