When are we, as American consumers, going to stop allowing retail to tell us when and where we should shop?
When will we take back at least some of our holidays and spend them with our families?
It used to be that we went shopping the day after Thanksgiving. Then stores started to open at 6 a.m., 4 a.m., midnight. Now they are opening at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., some earlier in the day. By next year most, if not all, stores will be open all day on Thanksgiving.
Except for the few loss leaders retail offers us, we can usually buy gifts at better prices after the holiday.
Stay home, watch the parades with your kids, have a nice family dinner and enjoy some football.
