Scott's Thoughts:
- Maybe this is the year I’ll actually get all my holiday shopping done before Christmas Eve!
- I do shop local when I can, but honestly more than half of what I buy comes from Amazon. Sorry not sorry for saving myself money and time.
- I am not even sure that Black Friday should still be a thing. That is like the last minute rush for shopping.
