Buyer's remorse

So far, I have returned 1 item I purchased for N for Christmas (some pajamas with feet), but I intend to return the big bag of balls I bought as a shared gift for the kids (for the makeshift ball pit in our basement). Both of the kids enjoy playing in it, but they are hell-bent on dumping out every single ball. There are enough balls in the pit now that when they are dumped, I can't see my carpet, so I don't think they need anymore. I don't know what I was thinking.

I did see that the Mega Blocks wagon I bought for G for $29.99 was recently half off, but I was too lazy to take it back. However, I have a haircut on Black Friday so I might just have to run by ToysRUs to see if it is still at the reduced price.

For some crazy reason, I feel like seeing if there are any good deals to be had on the craziest shopping day of the year, especially since N's birthday is in February. If I can go ahead and get some things for her at a steal, that would be awesome. Of course, I'm likely to buy stuff only to have to return it because she gets identical gifts for Christmas, but I think I'm willing to take that chance.

I'm thinking of peeking at what's on sale for Black Friday as well. I think most stores are having a preview of their prices online now.

Have never and I don't think I will ever shop on Black Friday. Not a big shopper anyway, but the thought of the traffic, crowds, etc. keeps me away. Even with the sales, I don't think I can do it. Enjoy.
