Black Friday Unboxing

What is a minimalist doing making a post about black friday shopping! I know, it's a scandal.  I have been waiting all year to purchase some of these items & I won't have you ruining that!

In conclusion I made some purchases during the Black Friday weekend via online. No shopping in person for me on Black Friday!

Trial sizes & just smaller sized products in general were my targets. I have some goodies to share with you & I hope you enjoy!

So let's take a look at some things that you could get for that minimalist in your life.  Gift Cards.  You either love them or hate them. I personally love them! My boyfriend however, thinks that they aren't special. I love them because I'm a broke college student! If I can use that card to get gas, food,...
