I've got a number of things to buy -- things that we can only find online -- as well as other items that I could have gotten earlier this week. When I heard about this nonsense, I said to myself, "Well, that can wait...until Friday."

So look out!

Right?!! And I live in the sticks, and unless I want to get in the car and drive 60 miles round trip, it is easier to just get what I want online. It is not like I have to have it right now.

I don't really need anything, but I will make a point to buy at least something.

I would love to advertise my small business, but I'm afraid it might turn people away in my blue area.

My neighbors moved out of the city to our neck of the woods and bought a bunch of Alpacas. He is as doctor (good kind) and they are just getting started. I don't think they have even sold their wool yet because they had house problems. I will have to send her your link…!

I hadn’t planned on buying anything but I think I’ll go shopping tonight online and purchase it tomorrow. These asshats think they can bud light the economy… 😂 They are the minority. We shall prove it tomorrow. Spend spend spend on anything!

I feel just the opposite! The prices have gone out of sight and feel buying the minimum and only necessities will make more of an impact!
