I love you, I won't kill you

As far as the parents of Angie, Cathy and others are concerned, isn't it an American Thanksgiving? !Is there any need to let my precious daughter run to the supermarket gate to get a good seat in the dark in the cold winter?

Angie didn't know how others answered.But she believes that the vast majority of students will speak the same words as her.Only when Thanksgiving comes, can you buy value-added products with a discount rate of only 1-2% off from retail giants such as Wal-Mart or Target.

Not only that, the month from Thanksgiving to Christmas is the traditional peak season for discounts and promotions for major retailers across the United States.The crazy shopping month starts at 12 am on the day after Thanksgiving. Many American families will go out after family reunion, queuing up day and night in order to buy cheap and high-quality goods.Therefore, this group of people who acted in the dark has a very cute and vivid title: "Early Birds"!

On Thanksgiving Day on November 11, the Yale campus was full of laughter and prosperity throughout the day.It doesn't matter if you can't eat the authentic turkey dinner of American families. Various college student organizations and groups will specially prepare a sumptuous Thanksgiving dinner for the foreign students who stay in school; You'll be fine when you buy something at a super discounted price.

After 9 o'clock in the morning, Angie was so impatient that she called Cathy outside her dormitory.Yelling at her, "Today is Thanksgiving, do you know what the holiday means?"

Cathy blinked. "Yeah. Turkey dinner, Thanksgiving parade, Black Friday."

Angie glared at her, "Nonsense, I mean now. Go, call Julie and the others to Wal-Mart!"

Before Cathy could express her opinion, Angie dragged her downstairs without saying a word.When Joanna opened the door, Angie exclaimed excitedly, "Joanna, let's go to Walmart now!"

Joanna laughed out loud, "Angie, Black Friday isn't here yet!"

Julie, who was leaning against the window, held a cup of steaming black coffee with a tangy aroma, and said leisurely, "Angie, Cathy, you can rest for a while. Uh...would you like some coffee?"

"Uh... of course, thanks!" Kathy blurted out.

Julie turned to get her coffee, and Joanna sat in the swivel chair and asked, "Angie, why are you going to Walmart so early?"

After thinking for a while, Angie said, "Uh...I want to go and see which area of ​​the supermarket this year's discounted products will be placed in. Assuming we can arrange a good position after tomorrow morning, once the supermarket opens You can go to the discount area first."

Joanna continued the conversation and said, "Well, it can avoid being distracted by less important products in the middle. Angie, do you think so?"

Cathy teased Angie, "Giggle, why didn't I see you so active on Thanksgiving last year?"

Angie squinted at her, "Didn't you just buy a car now! The monthly car loan repayment alone is $386, and that doesn't include the monthly gas payment."

Holding two cups of fragrant black coffee, Julie walked up to Anji and the two of them, "Your coffee is ready, be careful not to burn your hands."

"Thank you! Julie, what's your opinion?" Angie asked after taking a sip of coffee.

"Hey, I think we can go to Target first. I saw a message on their website that this year's gift card will launch a greeting card with an MP3 player, but it requires us to spend a minimum of $50 ’” Julie recalled.

"Really? Well, not bad. At least Target is doing better than Wal-Mart in these areas." Cathy agreed.

"However, many things at Wal-Mart are cheaper than Target." Angie retorted.

Joanna nodded and smiled, "Angie, you are right. The price difference between Target and Wal-Mart is indeed tens of cents, but they are characterized by many unique brands and products, and many fashion designers. and fashion brands.”

Julie went on to say, "For example, the Converse canvas shoes on our feet, the Apple phones in our hands, Sony's personal computers, and Nintendo's game consoles will all provide affordable fashion products that are unique to Target."

"What do you think?" Angie asked Cathy in a low voice.

"Not bad. Last year we went to Wal-Mart, this year we went to Target." Kathy replied with a shrug.

"Julie, I think it's better to split up. Uh... how far is the Walmart near the school from Target?" Angie asked.

Julie said without thinking, "There are branches on both sides of Highway 91 across the Quinnipiac River to the northeast of the school. The distance between the two supermarkets should not exceed 3.5 miles."

Angie immediately said, "3.5 miles? It's not more than 10 minutes away. Julie, you can go to Target, and Cathy and I go to Wal-Mart. In this way, you can buy discounted products from both companies."

"Angie, I wonder if you installed a bug in my room. Otherwise, why do you and Amanda think this way." Julie said jokingly.

"Who, Amanda? Hehehe, we are all best friends." Angie said casually.

"Hey, it's just a little girl. If you let her know what kind of attitude Amanda has, wouldn't she be very sad?" Julie smiled while thinking about such a question.

Angie is so anxious that she wants to go to the supermarket during the day, and there are other more important reasons.First, the second-hand BMW 3 Series 328xi two-door hardtop four-wheel drive coupe has just been bought for less than two weeks, and she needs more time to improve her driving skills; second, if the restaurant does not give her Thanksgiving holiday, This afternoon, she still has to go to the restaurant on time to do a part-time job; third, in order not to affect the relationship between Julie and Amanda, she wants to go alone to buy a Thanksgiving gift for Amanda.

Since no one objected to the proposal, all that remained was to drive to the supermarket.Angie and Cathy left the dormitory first and walked downstairs.Along the way, Cathy asked her, "Hey, you went to the supermarket early in the morning, do you have any other ideas?"

Angie looked at her, "Other ideas, what do you mean?"

Cathy said casually, "I'm not the worm in your stomach, how would I know?"

"You know, it's snowing in New Haven until late February next year. I don't want to have any major accidents driving in the snow. So, I need to practice my driving skills."

"Oh, for such a simple reason? Well, that counts as one reason, are there any others?"

"Part-time job. What if Lisa doesn't show affection and doesn't give me Thanksgiving leave?"

The two came to the library walkway next to the residential college, and Cathy nodded and said, "Well, work is still very important. If you keep your part-time job, you can keep your BMW."

Angie yelled, "What is my BMW? You also paid for it! I don't intend to own it alone."

Cathy held Angie's arm, looked at the winter sky happily, and said with a white breath, "Hey, don't say whether you own it or not, after all, I only paid half of the down payment of 5,000 US dollars. Besides, you have to pay off the car loan every month by yourself.”

"It's just because you're going back to China next year, that's why I took the task of car loan alone."

"Hehehe, how cute! Now, I think I like you more and more."

Anji deliberately replied, "Oh, if you like me, marry me! Anyway, we are not in China, and my old beauty will not treat us as monsters!"

Cathy pinched Angie "hardly" on the back of Angie's thick coat, "Didn't you say that we are not lesbians?"

"You dare to pinch me so hard? See if I don't bite you to death!" Angie yelled, turned her face and bit Cathy's face.
