Thanksgiving shopping


This Thanksgiving I had a huge urge to get a real feel of black friday
I wanted to go for shopping early in morning  (i mean really early 4 am) and see how it all goes... though didn't had anything specific in mind to buy

Unfortunately both of my roommates and another close friend are back home in India so I was finding it hard to get a company

I did called up few guys but most of the guys here count on every cent they spend ... by night my enthusiasm had faded and had sort of given up on the idea 

However somehow sparks got re-ignited and I woke up at around 4:15 in morning and before 5:00 was off to Christiana Mall (the only shopping mall in my city)

On reaching shopping mall I was perplexed!
Huge crowd! more than what I had imagined

In start I was feeling a bit awkard shopping all alone. 
However I soon took over those feelings. 

I went to some of the best brands - Macys, Banana republic, Gaps.
Bought a Nike T-shirst from Macys and a sweater from Banana Republic.

One of the shops that fascinates me always is 'Apple' store.
I had been planning to buy i-Phone / i-Touch since last few months

However it was becoming very difficult for me to decide.
With i-phone i will have to pay $30 extra every month which I was not willing.
For i-Touch did I really need i-Touch?? Maybe not as I already have a i-Pod.

After browsing through Apple store I sat outside it for nearly 30 minutes.
Meditating
A storm of yes-no running through my mind.
I had a choice to go with my temptation or to get more sensible and save on my wallet!

I finally asked myself a question 
"Even though its a really techie jazzy product do I really need it" and the answer was "no".
and there I go... move on

Next.
I had also been looking for home theatre and I just realized that I had seen a nice deal for home theatre in Circuit city.

There I was walking around in circuity city looking for my home theatre.
I finally got a great deal with a Sony Home theatre system which had all the features I had ever imagined.

a superb mind blowing system!
and what do I get for coming so early - a discount of $150
Isn't it awesome!

Let people think whatever they want .. right now i am king of my own territory
Watching movie in a HDTV with dolby surrond sound!
