2. I have all my Christmas shopping done already, and the presents are wrapped

Plan to shop next on December 26th to pick up next year's cards and more ribbon. IMO the prices are even better then than Black Friday.

6. Gotta go pick up my Kayak Tomorrow.

PIF about a month ago and they've been holding it in storage since then. I'll probably end up buying a paddle, pfd maybe some other fishing stuff while there.

My DW and her best friend are going out in the morning, it's their once a year get together. Most of our shopping is done already....man the internets are great.

7. Wife and daughters are going later tonight.

I don't know why, beyond they seem to enjoy it.

I'm just going to watch a movie and relax with some wine tonight. Tomorrow is hiking day (I hope I can wake them up).

9. I hate shopping to begin with.

No way I'm going to wade into that madness. I hope I don't even need to go to the convenience store.

10. I'm too broke for BF,

plus I'm not going to shred my dignity by rushing like a madman and trampling people/getting trampled inside of a store.

12. I have to pick up a prescription.

Believe me, the last thing I want to do is battle merchandise crazed Middle America to get it.

14. Back in the "olden days" we visited grandparents for T-giving,

and went to the local mall on Friday for winter coats. Let's just say it was pleasant, with no fights, or anyone being trampled for Cheap$hitFromChina. I won't get near a mall or big box store the next couple of days... the frenzy really turns me off. Ugh, and the parking situation. No way.
