Let’s watch how Obama “cooks the books” on retail sales

I was in Wal-Mart around noon on black friday, and it was nearly empty ;-)

That is because wallyworld rarely offers up black friday specials. They just stay where they always are.

By noon, they are empty. You’ve got to get there at 5 am to see the crowds.

We just got home from our local Walmart. Nearly empty and this is the day after the govt. checks come in the mail. Mrs. panax didn’t want to go because it’s always so crowded on this day of the month. Cashiers were waiting for customers, no wait at all.

Obama’s gang of thieves and liars can spin this any way they want but we all know the truth.....PEOPLE AREN’T SPENDING MONEY! We’re a hair away from a real depression and smart folks are hanging on to their bucks.

By noon on black friday all the “door buster” deals are gone, so it’s basically becomes a normal holiday business day. The way they load up black friday sales these days if you sleep until dawn you basically missed the sale.

I was at the mall last night and it was nearly empty. The road in front of it...a busy 4 lane major road that is usually bumper to bumper this time of the year, was no more crowded than on a normal evening. Super Target only had about 1/3 of the parking lot full of cars when we drove by.

One thing I noticed...the restaurants were packed!! The parking lots were full at all the major restaurants! Wonder why?
