No matter whether you think the sales are really all that spectacular or not; the one thing you have to admit is that Black Friday is primo for people watching! It’s also the perfect opportunity to act ridiculous and mess with people’s heads! This is particularly fun to do if you really could care less about shopping but you end up getting dragged out of your turkey-induced slumber to freeze your butt off before the crack of dawn by someone who supposedly loves you.
6 Christmas Card Verses We Dare You to Use
If you’re like most people, regardless of the style of Christmas card you chose, you’ll opt for a fairly traditional verse for the inside. However there are some amongst us who are a bit more daring, who live life a little more on the edge, who like to stick things in a lion’s cage and see what happens, who have been on Santa’s list for coal more than not!

Every year it seems that major retailers “leak” their Thanksgiving Day ads for Black Friday deals earlier and earlier.

I expected that maybe there was a typo we didn’t catch in proofing, perhaps an honest misspelling that spell-check “fixed” into a NSFW four-letter word, but no. It was worse. Right there in the headline was the most egregious of all things typography – the headline font was Comic Sans.

If you’ve been reading along with us for any length of time you’ve probably already realized, and if you’re new around here you’re about to realize, that we don’t tend to get wrapped up in talking about sales or promotions on the 123Print Blog.

Dance Down the Aisle to Wedding Bliss
