5 Best and Worst Black Friday Stories
bgr.com

As I was looking for inspiration through refinery29, I found an article that talked about different stories people had shared with them about their worst and best stories of Black Friday. Now we all know that Black Friday is always the day after Thanksgiving, and it's when the biggest sales of the year go on for either the whole day or a couple of hours. But, during these hectic hours people show their true colors. So just to make all of you laugh I thought I'd share with you guys some of their funny stories and laughs.

1. "One time, I was at Target on Black Friday and someone in front of me in line paid for their TV with two huge plastic jugs of change. It took forever because the cashier had to count it out it was something like $200 paid for in quarters, and people were so divided. Half the line was pissed, and half thought this person had totally won Black Friday."

2. "I was at the mall with my sister, and we were packing up our car when a frazzled couple with a TON of bags came up to us. They said they would give us $20 if we drove their stuff home for them because their car was full. We agreed but realized on the way to their house we totally could have driven off with it, they didn't ask our name or anything! But of course we delivered it and loved that we actually 'made' money on Black Friday."

3."My friends from college and I used to go to stores on Black Friday and take people's Starbucks orders from line. We made some money, but it was also really fun spreading holiday cheer!"

4. "I went to Macy's at 2a.m with my then boyfriend and his stupid friends my junior year of high school. I got mad that he was only paying attention to the xbox games instead of me, so I walked home on the freeway. I broke up with him as soon as I got home."

5. "I remember when I was little and not allowed to do Black Friday with my mom, so she would go with my grandma, and every year they would bring me back a snow globe from JCpenney."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
