It’s about the Friday after thanksgiving (which was yesterday) traditionally being a day where stores put some attractive wares on special and then people turn into absolute stampeding cattle and brawling gorillas getting said wares before the unnecessarily limited supply runs out.
Afaik, it’s not unusual for at least a couple people to be trampled or otherwise killed by this absolutely unhinged consumerism frenzy.
Here’s to hoping that it wasn’t that bad this year though, as the specials were apparently crappy and thus not worth committing involuntary manslaughter over 🤞🤞
I know. I pretended to not know to let my smug Yuropeanness shine.
Real talk though, I know we have more than enough problems of our own and love to import the most stupid ones from you guys. Although we thankfully passed on this particular madness.
Still, thanks for the explanation. Might be helpfull for those who don’t know and are too afraid to ask.
I actually bought some miniatures from an English company they only sell during events with some friends. Nothing amazing though and we weren’t in any rush, just placing our order over the internet.

I’m actually European myself, but yeah, I agree 💯. I participated in Buy Nothing Day here in Denmark 🇩🇰
