“But for many I do not think that shopping at midnight is a hardship.”

I guess we agree then. That’s what I am saying. There are times when people need help. But if you are shopping at midnight at Wal-Mart ... it’s because you are a poor manager.

This article wants people to feel pity. I feel annoyed.

Not necessarily. If you are shopping at midnight, at Wal-Mart, because there’s no food in the house and the food stamp card is about to be re-charged, that’s one thing.

Plenty of people who work later shifts or don’t have to be at work the next day, or just like to shop without the crowds shop at midnight. My son rarely goes in a store before nightfall because he doesn’t like the crowds of elderly and moms with children that inhabit them during the day. I’m a professor and don’t have early hours. I frequently shop anywhere from 11pm - 2am. I don’t have to shop then, but I don’t mind doing it when the spirit hits me. And when I do, there’s still food in the house, so it’s not like it’s urgent.
