Black Friday Book Bonanza

11/23/2012

56 Comments

 
My winner is Michelle C. Thanks so much for all the great comments and Facebook Likes. You guys rock!

Who's going shopping on Black Friday? Not me! No way. This girl is staying out of the traffic and stores. I might, however, be trolling around the Internet for goodies. At home, where it's safe and I can wear my fuzzy socks and pajamas. 

Enjoy this hop, and I hope you win some goodies just for you, or to share. Leave me a comment below, and be entered to win either an Ebook from my back list (that's everything except Out of the Ordinary), or, for US residents only, a goodie bag with home made one-of-a-kind bookmarks and other hand-crafted items. Give me a Like on Facebook, and your name will be entered twice, so you have a double chance of winning.

Click on another name when you're done, and happy hopping!

Thank you to our hosts, Book Savvy Babe, The Bawdy Book Blog, and Alive on the Shelves, for putting on this fabulous hop!

I stayed home in an effort to avoid all the craziness. Anything that I absolutely needed I ordered on the computer.

Isn't online shopping great, Caitlin? I hope the stores do well today, with people who like to get out and shop.

No braving the crowds for me. Much better to stay home and do the
Black Friday Giveaway Book Blogs Hop. Thanks for participating.

Nope, I didn't do the black friday gig. People are crazy and I don't like big crowds. :)

'Crazy' and 'big crowds' don't go well together, Michelle. Wise choice.

No shopping today...too crazy! I had brunch and gal-gabbing with my best friend today and it was terrific but if I hadn't I'm with you on staying home in my pj's and maybe trolling for cyber sales!
Happy and safe holidays everyone!

I don't do Black Friday -- the week before Thanksgiving usually marks the LAST time I deal with retail until after the New Year! I'm usually at home, curled up with a good book!
Thanks for the amazing giveaway!

The BEST way to spend Black Friday is sitting at home, hopping with old friends and making new ones. I can't handle the crowds anymore so I only do Black Friday shopping online if I do any. I tend to pick up gifts throughout the year so come November I'm finished. That way I can spread out the purchasing and not spend a fortune at the time of the year when my job is at its slowest and my paycheck is at its lowest. All I have to do now is remember where I hid all the stuff I got. :) Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win. <^_^>

You're a smart shopper, Renee. I'm jealous, you're already done! Yeah, it hurts having a big wad of money go out at once. You get the Planning Princess award for the year.

I have the same black friday attitude! I can get lots of deals online at home, where I am comfy and warm and have no risk of injury, other than from my usual clumsiness lol.

However, I'm thinking about some eBooks to buy as part of Black Friday sales from publishers.

I was suprised how many online deals I found on Black Friday instead of CyberMonday! I NEVER shop outside the house on Black Friday! This Friday we did go to to a movie: Skyfall was GREAT!

I tried to go out shopping this year and it really wasn't all that bad, I did get some good deals and it was a fun outing with my family :). Normally I stay in, but right now I am in a smaller town so I thought the crowds wouldn't be as bad, and they really weren't.

Thanks for having the giveaway!

No Black Friday for me. Nothing is worth that craziness. Unless they're giving away free big-screen TV's ;)
