As many people sit in front of their computers busily looking for bargains on line, we are spending our time together as a family.
I mentioned in a previous posting that Mondays are golden in our house! We love Mondays! If you are a restaurant owner’s family you typically live for Mondays since that tends to be when Skappo is closed and the start of the “weekend”. Our weekend is just one day, Monday, but we are happy about it.
This Monday is a beautiful, crisp and clear winter’s day. It is too awesome a day to just spend indoors so we are looking for a Christmas tree.
We will be making some new decorations out of self drying clay that will be painted and varnished. They will join the many ornaments that came from Michael’s days as a young boy.
Mondays are very important for us to bond and spend time together. The biggest advertised sale day of the year is not going to stop us.
Cyber Monday is great, but we noticed from past years experience that the “deals” can be found more throughout the year rather than just one day.
For instance, the computer I am using now was purchased for almost $100 cheaper than the advertised “door buster” Cyber Monday price.
Also, some retailers, like Staples or Best Buy, have their Cyber Monday deals from Black Friday onward so you don’t have to just shop on one day.
Still, I am happy for my many family and friends who are shopping today. They will be helping many retailers and our economy as a whole.
And who knows, maybe when the kids go to bed tonight I might find myself in front of my computer taking part in the last minute Cyber Monday frenzy.
Happy Cyber Monday to you all! May you buy and save a lot!
