Its almost Christmas and the time for shopping has come.  Stores are all promoting sales and bargain prices to attract more customers.  Last Friday was the famous Black Friday and people go in for the best prices. Some people are lining up, making camp, and waiting for the stores to open at the middle of the night.  I saw the lines on TV and was surprised by the number of people who actually go.  Here are some pictures i found of people waiting for this one day event:

In my opinion, its crazy.  I am a self-declared sleepy head, I love to sleep and no matter how good the deals are I doubt you will ever see me waiting in these massive lines.  What I would recommend many of you to do is to shop online, I find it to be  more convenient.  I don't have to worry about lines, parking, and best all I don't need to sacrifice my slumber.  Get a computer and go to the stores' website and look for the item and wholah! you can buy anything right then and there.  Best of all, since some websites are competing with stores they offer FREE shipping.  One more thing before I wrap this up, the best thing about the web is that one can Google an item and compare prices. This is what I am doing to avoid lines and still be able to buy my loved one and I our Christmas gifts ;)
