Shop local. There are plenty of small shops that have far more meaningful stuff, and the money stays in your town.
The only part of Black Friday I like are the videos on YouTube of Obama voters behaving like animals over a DVD player.
“Shop local.”
...you must have a “Buy Fresh Buy Local sticker on your car. Why would I pay more to help a “local”? Plenty of “locals” work at Target and WalMart. Put one of them out of business in any town and watch unemployment sky rocket. If a business, any business, is located within a town, it IS local.
