Soon to be upon us is Black Friday — the time of year when retailers try and outdo each other to corner extra sales. In recent years, retailers have been springing their deals earlier and earlier trying to get a jump on the other retailers. Some amazing deals can be had if you know where and when to look.
In light of that, what things are you hoping for? New computer? Mobile phone? Tablet? Game?
Alternatively, what great deals have you found (both on-line and brick-and-mortar)?
I think it would be wonderful if someone, by posting a wishlist item here, were able to find a great deal known by someone else in the community.

It's pretty easy to make the numbers look impressive when you're entirely changing how you determine them: http://www.forbes.com/sites/mikepatton/2015/01/29/consumer-price-index-undergoes-most-significant-change-in-25-years/#7730e8177fd6 [forbes.com]

The consumer price index has nothing to do with income or wages.
If anything the household income number is misleading low because the average number of people per household has been decreasing over the years due to divorce and people simply staying single for longer. So the amount of income per person is even higher.
Sorry to be all positive, after all Trump told you the country is losing.

Same AC here. Just wanted to mention that I didn't vote for Trump, assclown. You might be new here, but not every argument you'll come across on the internet is a tribal "Pepsi vs Coke" issue, brah.
