My fiancee was the first person to introduce me to Black Friday. I guess my parents never had the desire to take me and my 6 other siblings to Best Buy at 4 am to wait in line for hours to score any door busters. We were a handful, I don’t blame them, but I seriously can’t believe that I was 24 when I experienced my first Black Friday.
I’ve been yearning and pining to upgrade my camera for, what feels like, forever, but just didn’t feel comfortable paying full price. Well, duh, black friday was just around the corner, so I begged my fiancee to let me buy it (thanks babe!) as long as I had a plan to recoup the costs (and not eat away at our wedding fund!).
On the left we have my Nikon D3100 – my first introduction to the world of SLRs, my first camera love, my blog side-kick and partner in crime. On the right is MY NEW CAMERA! Wow I’m so excited. I’ve hardly had a chance to play with it, but so far its incredible. The shutter is faster, there are more focus points, it’s heftier but still fits perfectly in my hands, and all in all worth the two hour wait in the coastal fog trying to get into our local Best Buy.
I can’t be the only one who shopped until 4am on Friday/Saturday. What did you buy? Did you get any great Christmas gifts for your family or friends? Was it worth the wait? Or is Cyber Monday your preferred day to shop? Please, do share!
