Preparing for battle

I used to have a spot at the table. But not when the sale flyers are fresh.

This is phase one of what a professional shopper does on Thanksgiving day. Phase two comes after dinner when the sale papers come out again and all the sisters discuss strategy for their Black Friday operation. Phase three-- the attack phase-- begins well before dawn. Done with the skill and precision of a military strike, these professionals operate solo and will be in and out of the stores and back in bed probably before the sun and their husbands are up. (At least that's what happens at my house.)

Happy Thanksgiving to all! And beware of the Black (Friday) Ops taking place everywhere tomorrow.
