Ive never been a die hard black Friday shopper, but...this year I am a boycotter!! It is no longer Black FRIDAY...its a Thanksgiving day interruption! That is unacceptable! The retailers have definitely crossed the line in my book. There is no amount of savings that is going to rip me away from my family on Thanksgiving evening to watch a feeding frenzy over a TV or a Smart phone. Nor do I want to be responsible for taking someone else away from their family and forcing them to stand behind a register or stock shelves. Maybe we need re-evaluate the meaning of THANKSGIVING. thanks·giv·ing noun 1. the expression of gratitude, esp. to God. he offered prayers in thanksgiving for his safe arrival 2. (in North America) an annual national holiday marked by religious observances and a traditional meal including turkey. The holiday commemorates a harvest festival celebrated by the Pilgrims in 1621, and is held in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. A similar holiday is held in Canada, usually on the second Monday in October.
