Hooray We Survived The Black Friday Weekend :) !!

Just a very quick post to let you know that I survived black friday and the whole weekend, and I would like to thank everyone who came to the Coral Ridge Mall and spent your time and money.
I will comment at a later date about the abysmal way that people acted at the mall on Long Island, where the 34 year old man was trampled. Hopefully, everyone who trampled him will do prison time. Enough said for now!!
Anyway, back to our Coral Ridge Mall, I believe nearly everyone acted appropriately, even though I am sure you can tell me of individuals who were idiots. I found most people amusing and upbeat even though there was such a mass of people, even the employees had a good time. We were exhausted by Monday, but all in all it was a GREAT way to start the Christmas shopping season.
The Coral Ridge Mall did an awesome job of arranging the longer hours more toward the end of the month, when it really does help. We are working hard to beat our competitors at Jordan Creek, as we are a much better place to shop :) Personal bias I realize, but we are easier to get to and much happier to have you shop here.
Again this year, the Mall has it set up on the weekends that vehicles coming to the Mall from the South side, come in turn right, and then leaving the mall you continue in the same direction to get out. I personally wish this was year round, but this year it does seem like there are less people unfamiliar with the Mall, who drive toward you in your lane after dark.
Anyway a big hand to everyone from management, office, maintenance, and janitorial, for making the monster weekend a pleasant experience, and I hope shoppers came away with the same feeling. Thank You!!
Now I am getting some things done, and have to be up by early tuesday (day off), as I am doing a nice thing for my boss. I am going to take a one way trip to Des Moines on the 5:40 a.m. Greyhound to pick up his Suburban full of prints, which he allows me to drive the whole month, so I can have backup prints. This saves him driving it over and having to have someone follow him to give him a ride back to Des Moines. This will save him time and money, and only eat part of my one day off. Got to build up those Karma points whenever possible!!
So thanks for shopping and keeping it local, and please come see us again ALL month!!
If you have any good stories from this weekend please leave them in comments or send them to me at danielcarvelkepler@yahoo.com and I shall do a post on them!!
Take Care and Goodnight!!
