It seems these days that we skip right over the season of thankfulness, into a time of chaotic buying and shopping. How is a Christian to respond to this season seemingly focused on greed? By preparing our hearts and minds to reflect Christ, it is possible to still enjoy some Black Friday shopping while keeping a heart of thankfulness.

Most people know what to expect at a Black Friday sale. For those looking to avoid the usual frenzy, here are ten things to do on Black Friday besides shop.
