HAPPY BLACK FRIDAY EVERYONE!!! It’s that time of the year again, where we find book sales AND Black Friday deals to get happy over. Let me know what you found, ’cause I’m Christmas shopping too. 😉
P.S. How was your Thanksgiving? My man and I had a wonderful quiet dinner at home… with Mac and cheese, baked potatoes, green bean casserole, Cesar salad and… FILET MIGNON!!! On the grill. And it was WONDERFUL!!! Oh and a nice glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. And like… every football game on TV. One right after the next. LOL!!
Okay, now let’s get started. Don’t forget, if you found something worth one-clicking as fast as can be, let me know. I’ll add it here, and might just take advantage of it myself.
BLACK FRIDAY SALES THAT MAKE ME SQUEEEE!!
➔➔➔➔ You can check out ALL the Amazon BLACK FRIDAY DEALS 😉 here. And these are my favorites (so far):
- Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector <— EXCELLENT DEAL HERE!!! Small little bottle of hair conditioning perfection (but it’s not actually a conditioner. You put it on your hair AND THEN wash it out and condition etc etc. It rebonds your hair and my hair becomes absolutely silky. Just check out the reviews!!). I usually pay $30 or more for this bottle and it’s on Prime Day sale right now so I’m buying myself another one!!! This stuff ROCKS. —> Here are the rest ion the Black Friday deals on the Olaplex line.
- ECOSUSI Small Crossbody Bags Vintage Satchel Work Bag <— SO FREAKING CUTE!!!! OMG THE BOW!! If they were bigger (enough to hold my laptop), I’d totally get one. They are more of a purse size but adorable and if I hadn’t already purchased 2 purses this month, I’d have jumped in.
- Anchor Hocking Bake and Store Glass Set (16 piece) <—SALE!! I HAD TO REBUY THESE when I moved to my new home a few months ago. I donated a ton of stuff before I moved out, since I had a small-ish storage unit to hold my life. LOL!

Sawyer Bennett has a huge sale. Most of her books are .99.
Oooooh I love her!!!! Hopefully still on sale so I can include on my next post. 😀
This is a super list today!! I picked up 3 of the suggestions, including the little bow purse and the mini stand mixer.
YAY!!! I personally would have also preferred the mini mixer (I rarely use my huge one because it takes so much space and is so heavy) but that smaller one would be perfect for me. I’d even choose that minty color. LOL!!
Hi Maryse,
I loved, loved the man I’ve never met. Got me out of a book slump
Who wrote The man I never met?
Hi Rochelle, Elle Cook is the writer
I can’t wait to read it!!!! This sounds so much like my thing.
I hope you can help. I’m searching for a book about unrequited love. He’s married or maybe just in a serious relationship and they have a kid together. Something happens and he gets drunk and has sex with the heroine and doesn’t remember the next day. Then his significant other tells him she’s pregnant again and he goes back to her. Some time later he finds out that the second baby isn’t his. They have two little girls and I think at some point he was a professional athlete. Hope you can help! Thanks
That sounds right up my alley!!! I’m following!!!
