Friday the 6th, my wife and I drove up to her parents’ home in Michigan. On the way, I had the option of listening to “Bleak House” by Dickens, or Christmas Music. I am typically a fan of Chuck, but something about “Bleak” being in the title, and the fact that the book takes about 43 days to listen to, pushed me towards the Christmas Music option. I still feel the first week of November is too early for Bethlehem's Greatest Hits, but like I said, those were my choices. Anyway, once the playlist got rockin’ I could hardly help but cheer up a bit at the thought of Christmas being just around the corner, or over the river and through the woods and then around the corner. Now certainly, I don’t want to steal and of the glory from Jesus. It is His birthday after all, and He deserves a lot of praise! But, one can hardly help but think about shopping as well. This likely brings more terror than joy. My wife may be the only person I have met who prefers going to the mall when the entire city is there, everyone is super grumpy and wearing 7 layers of clothes, and nobody has what you want. All this to say that today I got a sneak peek at the Black Friday Ad from Meijer. At this moment, only the front page is available, but there is a link below that will be operational after 12:01 am Sunday the 15th. I hope you enjoy getting some great ideas so you can plan for the madness. Don’t forget that Meijer has an even larger selection of items on their website and lots of great deals on shipping. There is also a really cool shopping list generator called “GIFTCRACKER” that you can send to everyone on your list, so you don’t have to constantly ask them what they want.
Here are the links to everything mentioned.
