Ask Lemmy

I bought my wife pregnancy clothing, and found out I’m having a girl!

Nothing

Nothing fuck consumerism.

Well it was a regular work day for me, so I bought lunch

I didn't even pay for bus fare. I biked to work, biked home, and ate leftovers. Suck it, fake corporate holiday!

STEM toys for my neices and nephews. Especially the ones with religious parents.

I am their sciencefather

Nothing, and I don’t plan to buy anything except normal stuff through January, either. I’m not doing Xmas this year, so very easy to avoid the spend.

Absolutely NOTHING!

• Eggs
• Cheese (Grated Mozarella and "Pizza Cheese")
• Cream cheese
• Pizza Dough (pre-rolled-out)
• Tortelloni
• Swabian raviolis
• Tomato purée
• Tomato paste
• Sauce hollandaise
• Red wine (for cooking)

Not goddamn thing. Best Black Friday ever.

Milk, trash bags, and lube.

Oh and I bought my ex a pack of smokes because she sent me a couple nudes.

I didn't need anything so I didn't buy anything. 🤷

Not a single thing

A box of 5x50 (metric) wood screws. Not because of black friday, but because I had ran out.

Nothing I would not have bought any other time.

I must admit I was a big spender. I was on the second last day of my cruise, so I went a little wild. I spent $2.55 on the Guitar Hero cabinet in the arcade. No regrets.

Goodness gracious, the way everybody on Lemmy claims to be anti-capitalist, the majority of answers better be "nothing".

Edit: ITT: people offended at being lumped in with the rabble.

I bought a rock climb membership on sale. The next day, it was on sale for a cheaper price so I refunded and bought it again

Nothing

Was that yesterday? Didn't go shopping yesterday.

I didn't buy anything

I made no purchases. I don't need much more than groceries and I have leftovers still for a few days.

Nothing related to black friday as I only did groceries.

Not a god damn thing

Nothing.

We're supposed to be holding a boycott until Dec 2nd.

Y'all are fucking pathetic who broke the line.

Nothing, I don't exactly need anything at the moment. In fact I almost forgot Black Friday existed...

I was going to buy the Lego Star Trek enterprise, but it was sold out before I got there. Oh well, they saved me from myself with artificial supply restrictions.

Instead, I didn't buy anything.

VPN.

(2-year subscription for Proton came to $71.76) I wasn’t planning on buying anything anyway but during these dark times, VPN is a necessity IMO.

nothing and fuck all of you for participating in this scam.

I bought a single €2 snack while walking through a Christmas market. Other than that, it was a day of riding public transit (monthly pass), walking through parks, and eating a packed lunch.

Out of pocket total: €2.

Is this actually a specific day somewhere?

All the online shops I know are having "black Friday" for some weeks and I don't know (and don't care) when it ends.

Stayed home. (Except a regular walk around the neighborhood.)

I keep a wishlist of things I want/need with their regular prices marked. On Black Friday, I check that list to see if anything got discounted. More than likely, nothing is, because discounted products are usually cheaper variants, or already-expensive items marked up in advance, then dropped to regular price for Black Friday.

Nothing on my list was discounted this year. So I bought some games through the Steam Black Friday sale and called it a day.

Some degreaser and penetrating oil for a small engine one of my kids is trying to repair.

I got some Channa Masala at a local indian place but it wasn't on sale or anything

I got a second hand ThinkPad W520 for about $30USD. I already have one, but this was too good of a deal to pass.

An m8 and m10 bolt from ace hardware with corresponding washers. Big spender

Pizza for pizza Friday.

Nice try, FBI
