A bad deal for Mrs. Frugalicious
When Maddie Michaels, AKA Mrs. Frugalicious, is invited to take a local news crew with her on a Black Friday shopping expedition, she's excited to show viewers at home how to score the season's best savings. Despite a negative comment from Contrary Claire— the sole naysayer in her growing Frugarmy—Maddie is hopeful her first TV appearance will be a bargain-savvy success.
But Black Friday eve takes a bleak turn when a shopper is crushed beneath a pallet of toasters. After learning that the victim could be Contrary Claire, it becomes clear that Claire has made more than one enemy. Maddie finds herself dealing once again with a murder investigation. Will she catch the killer before someone else is slashed like a sale price?

Black Thursday by Linda Joffe Hull. Published by Midnight Ink Posted on May 5, 2014 by cayocosta72
Mrs. Frugalicious.com aka Maddie Michaels is scheduled to take a local news crew on a black Friday shopping expedition to show shoppers how to score the best bargains. Maddie’s blog readers are overwhelmingly excited and supportive of her outing, all except for Contrary Claire, a follower that loves giving Maddie a hard time. She makes no secret of the fact that she thinks it’s a terrible idea. But when Claire’s body is found buried under a massive pile of toasters, it becomes clear that Claire has made more than one enemy. Maddie begins to investigate, she needs to find the killer before the copes arrest her, or before the killer strikes again.
A great cozy mystery, especially for those of us who would rather be buried under toasters than hit the stores on Black Friday. Humorous and clever

I enjoyed reading Black Thursday very much! I loved the tips from "Mrs. Frugalicious" as well. My favorite characters were Maddie, her twin sons and her step daughter. I see a lot of possibilities for the four of them to team up in future books. This book incorporated the long standing tradition of Black Friday shopping with the new trend of Thanksgiving night shopping and the modern trend of online blogging to make a fun read! I would definitely recommend it.
