Happy Thanksgiving! If you have been dreaming of Black Friday Madness this is the website, Black Friday Ads, is for you. (I live less a mile and a half from the infamous Woodbury Common Premium Outlets, and there is no madness like Black Friday Madness here. That translates into don't bother driving on Friday in my town and the State Police are out directing mega traffic jams a la L.A. at it's finest from dusk 'till dawn, including the bus parade carting loads of European's taking advantage our week dollar.) Yearly they post well ahead of time the ads and pricing for Black Friday well ahead of time. That way you can pre-plan your madness weeks ahead of time. For the record, I don't "do" Black Friday.

I don't get into the holiday spirit being pushed and shoved and potentially cursed (Hey, this is metro NY) in an attempt to get the last $499 flat screen or $299 camcorder, which after the first 20 people get into the store at 5am is usually gone anyway. I don't like standing on line with a million people. I want to relax and spend time with friends and loved ones and spend Black Friday putting up my Christmas decorations (in my predominantly Jewish neighborhood, LOL) . I'm willing to pay more or lose out on the "it" gift to preserve what little sanity I have less. I'm an online shopper anyway. I live for QVC (can you say easy pay?), eBay,  Amazon and Zappos among many others. But for you guys who can't kick off your holiday right unless you are thrown into the maelstrom, well, here you go!! Have fun and let me know what deals you scored!!

Okay, Ms. Melissa Ann Lambert, gallery artiste and friend for the ages...the Pewter Metallic bag [click to enlarge] is my newest acquisition. (All were purchased at the Coach store) High demand and completely sold out everywhere. Only one or two on eBay even. This was a real score! The rest were bags I purchased this year. The black bag and wallet are my every day items. I think the pewter bag will be my every day summer bag.  I don't see any of them going up on eBay soon, as I'm still happily using all of them... Now there is also the Dooney & Burke collection, but I'm not as fond of them as my Coach bags. Of course, a couple of my friends and I joke we are the "poor white trash" of the area, as real Louis Vuitton's, Prada, Balenciaga, Fendi, Ferragamo, Furla, Kate Spade's are generally hanging off the arms of the Starbucks wielding teens and their mommies here where I live, especially among those living in the large area of town known as "Mansion Ridge". It's comforting to know they all still shop at Target like the rest of us...LOL  ;)

Mel, again, it's great to see you on Vox and I'll definitely be nudging you to continue to pursue your blogging (bravo! I see you posted today!) for the variety of reasons we talked about on Monday. I wish I was in SoCal today, it's abysmal here in the NY metro area! (And no, I haven't turned into a materialistic &*%#$ - promise!!!LOL)
