happy buy nothing black friday? libra shows us how.
here in the states we all know the day after our food-stuffed thanksgiving is black friday, the busiest shopping day of the year and unofficial kick off to the frenetic holiday shopping season. a new holiday has happened on my radar and it’s strategically celebrated on the same day. BUY NOTHING DAY is on the 23rd november in the states and 24th november internationally.
obviously, the two holidays are polar opposites of each other, so let’s take libra’s lead shall we and balance the two. how would the diplomatic sign honor these occasions? they would gracefully compromise and buy beautiful second hand gifts. libra, with an eye for style can spot a treasure a mile away. i’m no libra, but i did manage to find a few oldies but goodies… not quite a sterling silver shaker with my zodiac animal inscribed, but nice just the same ; )
