Breaking Tradition

This year, we broke from tradition. We didn’t make the absurdly early trip to Future Shop for their Boxing Day sale. There just wasn’t anything worth getting up at 4:30 in the morning.

We did head in at around 11am though. I picked up a 2GB thumb drive for $30 (after those damned rebates), and both my father and my father-in-law picked up a GPS. I decided that I’d save my money (and gift cards) for a new HDTV next year.

I didn’t find that there was much in the flyer this year. Maybe it’s because I have most of what they were advertising. There were a few things I was tempted to buy like hard drives and such, but I just didn’t need them.

Oh well, there’s always next year.
