Black Friday Apology


I wanted to post a huge apology to all of my readers. I'm sure some of you have come on here looking to see what sales are happening since today is black Friday...but since I am away on vacation I don't really know what sales are going on. I'm not touching a computer while I'm relaxing in the Caribbean. If this has caused anyone an inconvenience I am sorry. Regular postings will be back to normal on Sunday November 30th.
