I'm glad that you guys look at it in a positive light. A very good friend of mine is a store manager in retail, and he's trying to get out too. It's a lot of scrambling all around because we consumers are always looking for a deal. We'll pray for greener job pastures for you. Thanks for reading! MBR, that’s a great observation.

IF the store doesn't do well that day, it usually ends up meeting cut hours for the rest of the Christmas holidays. They would MUCH rather people come shop and buy from them on the day before Thanksgiving, and all of these specials are just ways of getting people to do just that.

I used to be pro Black Friday myself until it started affecting my dinner :) But last year I managed to do all my Xmas shopping online and saved by shopping only closeout sections, this year I'm hoping to do the same. Good luck if you venture out! Hey there, thanks for the mention.
