Target "Black Friday" Ad

Searching for a duvet cover for my husband's worn old comforter. I have been trying to find SOMEWHERE that sells realistically priced covers or cotton comforters (not that polyester crap)..
I ended up on the Target website and found this on the front page:




Seemed a little odd with the wording. A cursory search just brought up the usual results: The day after Thanksgiving, and a list of devastating worldwide events from previous years. Could be just a weird ad, or something deeper?

I assume you know Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, has some of the best sales you will find during the year. At least from my experience. So they are saying "We want to have a second day this year where we give you the enormous savings on items like we do on the day after Thanks giving".

I'm calling Al Sharpton.

They also do it at walmart too

This is also referred to as a Christmas-in-July sale. Nothing nefarious going on -- just a run of the mill retail marketing ploy.

What about the white Fridays? And red? And yellow? And iridescent pink? I think it's time to call the FCLU (Fridays Civil Liberties Union) and boycott Target.

It's just another gimmick so that you part with money buying stuff that you don't really need. Mobs of shopping addicts selling out to another feeding frenzy of materialistic desires. BUY NOW.

I've been getting Target emails all week for "Black Friday" like savings. I don't shop Black Friday in November, not sure I'll shop it in July either.

Here's the graphic from today..... oooooo... black, white & red... they must be up to something....

Sure - that's what TPTB want us to believe.

How much did you get paid for this shilling??
