If you are like me, you've probably been keeping an eye out for all the "deals" to be had on Black Friday.
The two things on my list, a brand new flat screen tv and possibly a new laptop. After paying off the last of my credit card debt, I decided to put the money to better use. The 50" TV I have now works just fine and my laptop, although some of the keys have to be pressed really hard in order for them to work, is ok for now.
With that in mind, I will not be shopping on Friday. I do plan to make one small purchase though. I want a ShopVac. They have them for sale at Wal-Mart for $20. They usually run about $40-60.
Be sure to check out CleverDude's post - Black Friday and Buying out of Budget. CleverDude gives some excellent reasons for putting off those unneeded purchases.
What are you buying? How much are you planning to spend?

I always get caught up in the Black Friday madness, but this year there's nothing that I really want or need. The closest I got was Toshiba's HD DVD player at Wal-Mart for $98 a few weeks back, but I missed out on those.
Zero- It's Buy Nothing Day for us! But a $40 ShopVac is a steal...
