Sleep In on Black Friday

November 26, 2009 by Angela Leave a Comment

Take part in “The Great American Sleep-In” at Global Giving.

On the day after Thanksgiving, ditch the mall and snuggle up to this earth-changing idea for gift giving. Here’s how it works:

  • Sleep in, spend time with your loved ones at home, and avoid the crowded stores and long lines.
  • Stay in your pajamas and order Global Giving Gift Cards online. Give the card to someone you love, they go to Global Giving and pick a cause that touches their heart, and use the card to donate to their favorite project. It’s the gift that changes lives.

Find out all about it here.

So give the holiday gift that’s both non-consumer and experiential. You’d be amazed how far a modest gift of $10 or $20 can go towards some of these worthwhile projects.

About Angela

On January 1st, 2009, I joined The Compact and pledged to Buy Nothing New for one year. It sounded like the perfect way to converge my desire to live on less money with my interest in living a simpler life and trying to lessen my carbon footprint. The experiment was so rewarding that I'm continuing with it indefinitely. This blog documents my journey in non-consumerism.
