    The day after Thanksgiving, November 29th.

    PWI does not release sales information ahead of time. Your guess is as good as anyone else's.

    Google that.

    Will there be r9 sales then?

    We don't know. Maybe 50 or 60%? Never really know what sort of sale we get till it actually happens, though its likely if previous sales are anything to go off of.

    If so, how cheap will r9 be?

    See above.

    Refine sale then as well?

    See above.

    Oh yea, what is Black Friday? o.O

    This is black friday.

    As for what will be on sale, no one knows until PWE puts the sale up. R9 sale? You mean that sale that's constantly getting rotated every 2~4 weeks between MOGs and chip packs? Why would we need an extra sale for that b:shocked

    Black Friday, the closest we get to a Zombie Apocalypse

    Thanksgiving should hopefully be everyday of the year if you have shelter, food, internet, reasonably good health in your family/friends/yourself. And show it by being kind to those who do not have these things. (Yea, sorry, my serious side is showing)

    Its funny how people that try to be smart just prove how ignorant they are. Thanksgiving is a festivity just for USA and Canada so there is no reason for anyone of the others about 190 countries to know about Thanksgiving. Guys from USA, it would be nice that u take a map and check that there is a big world outside ur borders and that world have no obligation to pay more attention to ur country than the one u put to them ^^.

    Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving and is the start of Christmas shopping. Many stores offer huge blowout sales either to clear out stock to allow for Christmas inventory or to bring people in and raise awareness of stores sales for the next month of the Christmas season. Alot of stores will do 50%-90% off sales, adjust their hours, or do special promotions ex. first 50 TVs sold get a DVD player free. Because of this it's considered the largest shopping day of the year (in the US at least.)

    Thanksgiving is a holiday of giving 'thanks for our bounty' and was traditionally a religious/harvest tradition in English traditions. The lore behind it was during the early American colonial days the colonists were starving and the Indians brought food and taught them how to farm and hunt. As a result, the colonists survived and it fostered peace between each, often represented as one big meal shared by Indians and Americans. That's the lore, although it's really just a harvest holiday. You get together with your family and cook a big dinner and traditionally take turns saying what you are thankful for.

    Thanksgiving is a holiday that celebrates a group of religious fanatics pretending to befriend local indigenous people to con them out of food and supplies so they can survive. In thanks for the help they later enslave, mass-murder, **** the natives as well as infect them with various deadly/debilitating diseases.

    Of course this truth has been white washed, covered up and is not taught in US schools. When it comes to deplorable holidays it ranks right up there with Columbus Day (who was a genocidal manic).

    SkogDyr's guide to Holidays in the US

    New Years Day - Jan 1st. Celebrated by watching Rose Bowl Parade while hungover and eating tons of junk food.

    Groundhog Day - Feb 2nd. Celebrated by forcing a small furry rodent type creature to endure the cold and throngs of armchair meteorologists so one town in Pennsylvania can make a few bucks.

    President's Day - Feb 17th. Celebrated by all department stores as a White Sale. This is the time to buy sheets, towels and bed mattresses.

    Easter Day - Apr 20th. Celebrated by finding brightly colored eggs that a large bunny has pooped out and hidden. Celebrating the resurrection of a Jewish prophet by eating ham.

    Memorial Day - May 26th. Celebration to honor the BBQ grills, hot dogs, hamburgers and potato salads that have made this country great.

    Independence Day - July 4th. Another celebration to honor the BBQ grills, hot dogs, hamburgers and potato salads that have made this country great.

    Labor Day - Sep 1st. The last celebration to honor the BBQ grills, hot dogs, hamburgers and potato salads that have made this country great.

    Halloween - Oct 31st. Celebration that allows you to attend parties, get drunk and go home with a beautiful woman in a French Maid costume.

    Morning after Halloween - Nov 1st. Horrific morning when that beautiful woman in a French Maid costume you went home with the night prior turns out to be the brother of your best friend... in drag. You both hang your head in shame and agree that this will never be spoken of again.

    Thanksgiving Day - Nov 27th. Celebration of stuffing yourself with so much food that you need to vomit. Also observed with a parade of limited talent TV stars from years ago, big balloons that you secretly wish would come crashing down on Justin Beiber and American Football.

    Black Friday - Nov 28th. Celebrated by lining up hours ahead of time for when the door opens anywhere from midnight to 6am. Festive traditions include the annual "someone crushed in the doorway at WalMart", the "assault for taking that last popular toy resulting in death at ToysRus" and the ever popular "wives are shopping for a couple days so let's go down to the strip club and rent us a ho0ker" evening.

    Christmas Eve - Dec 24th. Day when husbands, nation wide, wait til the stores are closed to shop for their wife and kids.

    Christmas Day - Dec 25th. Day when mommy yells at daddy when she opens up her gift from dad and finds and box of condoms from the gas station and a note that says I love you. (NOTE: This date next year will be celebrated at either your mom or dad's house. As a bonus, you will have two new step parents to supply you with gifts to buy your love.)

    New Years Eve - Dec 31st. Celebrated by drinking, snacks, more drinking, a kiss at midnight followed by a drunk call to that brother of your best friend asking if he still has that French Maid costume.

    These are the holidays we celebrate. b:victory

    I did a report about the Canadians burning down the White House during our battle for independence (from the British), and was told it wasn't a 'school approved' topic for said class... But the teacher liked it, so I got a pass anyway...

    My parents wrote an angry letter to the superintendent about that. Yeah.

    It happens one day a year. It's a time where families come together to poke, prod and make fun of each other while drinking too much and eating food from recipes that probably need heavily tweaked or just flat out thrown away. Oh, and don't forget gaining 3-5 lbs.
