I’d have to look through my emails, but I ordered smaller orders from more places this year instead of a big severin or vin syn order. MVD, Raven Banner, Via Vision, Umbrella, and of course the 2 mentioned already. Prob place 1 more Grindhouse order and be done

It appears an American shopping institution has finally been gutted. Whatever this was, it wasn't Black Friday this year.

Maybe in your small town. Sales were apparently up overall 7.5% from 2022. And BM visits was up.

Have to admit, it was up for me last year and this year, albeit in part because I make fewer trips to my US addresses now than in previous years, so I figure I might as well stock up between the Halloween sales (not included here) and the BF deals, then lay low for a while:
