Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends.

As someone mentioned it is just a one day event being overlapped by Black Friday sales and Cyber Monday sales.

I grew up in a socialist India in the 80s and purchasing something was limited to needs.

I have a list that I want, but those are not current needs. I have an instant pot that may die soon! Usually they act as if they are dying but continue to live. My fitbit of seven years is still hanging on. Add on, I can buy clothes that look pretty or cheap!

I remember going to the mall twenty years ago to get new comforters early in the morning. I haven’t done that in years. I remember making my boys drag those big comforter bags and I would have also purchased a sauce pan which was on a six hour sale😃!

I also learnt cruise prices and hotels also have these thanksgiving sale! So interesting.

Youtube is flooded with videos on what is a good deal this year. So you can sit on your couch, watch those videos and make your purchases on your phone. End result make your wallet lighter and your body a bit more heavier.

What is that I am going to do this year? I have no plans 😃! Will update after Black Friday!
