Darke County Senior Scribe
Black Friday
By Lois Wilson
Once again Senior Scribe Poet Laureate Lois Wilson is on top of the
season with her insightful look at the important events of the day.
What comes after Thanksgiving… or in some cases interferes with
Thanksgiving? Why it’s Black Friday of course! And the very next day,
it’s Small Business Saturday.
The word of the day is BUY! This can easily be translated into pull out
your cash or credit card. Whether you really need it or not, you can
get it cheaper today.
Wilson's completed set - five volumes - of published poetry is
available and is offered as a fundraiser for the Darke County
Scholarship Fund. Some editions are running low, said put in your
request soon. A sixth edition is currently at the printer. Enjoy great
poetry and help a local youngster attend college. For additional
information, contact editor@countynewsonline.org.
RED TO BLACK? FOR WHOM?
The day after Thanksgiving, Friday,
Has become the national “buy” day.
Ads galore in papers, on TV
Tout “save more” and “buy one; get one free.”
“The best deals of the year,” they insist;
Such incentives are hard to resist.
But if one cannot, does it matter?
Yes, the result—your billfold’s flatter!
