Black Friday Problems: 11 Tweets That Perfectly Summarise The Struggle Of Sale Shopping

'Someone almost fought us over a parking spot this morning.'

It’s Black Friday and, unless you possess some Jedi-like restraint, you’ve probably already spent most of this month’s wages on a fancy TV or lace jumpsuit you never knew you needed.

While saving money on luxury goods is great, sometimes sale shopping has its downfalls.

Here are some of them...

1. You spent your morning fighting over parking spaces.

Getting ridiculous amount of emails telling you the deals on all the things you can't afford #BlackFridayProblems

11. But even though you’re destined to spend December eating beans on toast, spare a thought for the poor retail workers who had to put up with your shit all day.

You are welcome to every customer that came into the store that I didn't scream at or hit. #blackfridayproblems #yourewelcome 💁
