My Home About Me

Yesterday, I took the afternoon off and went shopping with my family. It was only four days before Christmas, and I didn't encounter the crowds I thought I would at the upscale malls we visited. Later that afternoon we visited an outlet mall, and my observations were about the same. Many of the stores we visited were selling items at 50% off or had a 2 for 1 sale. At first blush, I would say that the Christmas shopping season won't be a disaster, but it won't be the 19% sales boom that the cheerleaders of Black Friday originally reported. Just about every store we entered signed off with "Merry Christmas" as we left. I heard it so many times that I determined it was just another "corporate thing". That being said, I still enjoyed hearing it. It looks like Corporate America is beginning to wise up.
