Any predictions on this years Black Friday sales numbers?
Vanity

I have been to the local mall and to several retailers this past week and I'm wondering what sort of numbers we will see this year for Black Friday. Have there been any forecasts on what retailers are expecting? I know that there is so much uncertainty right now economically and socially, how will that translate into our willingness to purchase this year? Will we have a last "Hurrah!" or will we simply set on the sidelines and await the coming "Whateverthehellisgoingtohappennext"?

required gift giving is not fun...I hate it...I’d much rather have a little present in the middle of a no name month for no reason whatsoever except someone thought I might like it...

So true, cherry. Every day is a gift. Watch with wonder as it unfolds.
