Got an ounce each of Special Dark and Noble Mark from Mandala as my one and only Black Friday purchase of the year. Wish I could have gotten way more stuff but it is what it is.

After already spending so much on tea/tea-stuff this year, I only made a small BF order with Verdant – and, tbh, it was more just for the ‘new’ stuff they’ve added. I got an ounce each of a couple of teas (inc. Golden Fleece and the Chocolate Genmaicha) and then one of their new Gaiwans and a couple of matching drinking cups :D And, as they were only $3, I got one of those metal strainers you use in Gong Fu brewing, as I still don’t have one :P

Although I’m greatly tempted by Verdant and Teavivre’s sales, I limited my Black Friday orders to these two:

BUTIKI (I just couldn’t resist one last chance to stock up on a few of Stacy’s amazing teas!)
Caramel Vanilla Assam (got the very last bag of this one!)
Creamy Eggnog
Hello Sweetie
Pistachio Ice Cream
Plum Brandy Cheesecake
Pu Erh Tuo Cha
Pumpkin Creme Brulee
Tamarind Gui Fei
2012 Ancient Puerh Discs

TEASOURCE (Christmas gifts for a couple of tea-loving friends, including the former roommate who got me hooked on loose leaf tea!)
Candy Apple White
Chocolate Cream
Chocolate Safari
Fireside Spice
Georgia Sunshine
Mango Tango
Roasted Chestnut

Now time to ignore the boards for the rest of the day so I don’t get sucked into buying more! :D

I should have purchased nothing, given the Butiki order I made last week in fear of the ones I wanted selling out. This is what I got in spite of that.

Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea Variety : 100g

Doesn’t seem like much. But I placed non tea orders that were also less than planned. Woops :)

So I caved and ordered from Verdant this morning before work. I’d been stalking their site and when I saw that they were getting more Yu Lu Yan Cha back in stock I knew I was gonna have to order (because I missed out on it this summer). I also wanted to use the gift code I got from when their rewards system was closed down.
I wish I could’ve gotten Master Han’s Wild Picked Yunnan Black as my free sample, but I totally understand why I couldn’t since it is a bit more expensive.

Yu Lu Yan Cha Black – 2 oz.
Laoshan Black Chocolate Genmaicha – 1 oz.
Laoshan Black – 2 oz.
Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong Smoked Wuyi Black Tea – Sample
Big Red Robe – Free sample

Most dangerous Black Friday I’ve had (Since I also bought a brand new KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer from Kohls today.) I’m resisting the urge to look at Teavivre and Butiki (Though I’m dying to order from Butiki before everything is gone). Lol.

I also just placed an order with Adagio for two bags of their White Berry tea cookies (which are amazing and I could eat the whole bag in one sitting). I had a $6 certificate and this was perfect to use with the free shipping offer. Got a free sample of their pu-erh hazelberry to try. So we’ll see about that. Lol!

So much for my willpower…

Just placed one more Black Friday order; this one with Teavivre. I won a $5 gift card in the recent SororiTEA Sisters blog giveaway and I just couldn’t resist using it! All I bought was 100 grams of Milk Oolong and a sample of Golden Monkey and it only came to $6.00 out of pocket. (Justifying…justifying…)

Yay! You got the milk oolong! :)

I couldn’t resist such a great deal and I just know I’m going to love it since I liked the one from David’s so much. Thanks for the tip! :)
