Who are these people, you know the one’s, the crazed shoppers trying to grocery shop the day before Thanksgiving. They then fuel up on the holiday meal and get up at 4:00am on black friday and totally lose their mind,morality and driving skills to hit the stores.
My home turf is typically pretty mellow but not this time of year. I live a stones throw away from a large shopping mall and about 8 strip shopping complexes. To make matters even crazier I live on the border with Massachusetts and they come here to shop because NH has no sales tax.
Its like a starting pistol goes off each year the day before Thanksgiving. From now until the week after Christmas I’m under sedge. Normally I can leave my home coffee in hand and leisurely head to the market, bakery and seafood market and make it back home before the coffee gets cold. This time of year a badly timed trip can land me in traffic for thirty minutes per mile surround by wide eyed crazy people with out of state tags ( Massachusetts).
We have a nickname for our neighboring crazies “Massholes", it fits them well to be sure. I don’t get their logic flooding the border stores to save 6.25% on a purchase. They went thru that savings driving here and then sitting in traffic with fuel costs and not to mention making my life hell.
I sure hope others don’t have do deal with people like this, If so, tell me about it, I may feel better about this hellish situation.
