I am blessed we have such a family gathering on Thanksgiving. Who knows what home situation exists for the holiday shoppers.Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13754757266272861073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909528955465839978.post-26697651745795629962013-11-14T19:13:55.022-05:002013-11-14T19:13:55.022-05:00I would rather chew my own arm off than shop on Bl...I would rather chew my own arm off than shop on Black Friday. And every year, when we see customers trample and pepper spray each other over low-priced items, I grieve for our society as a whole. Most of the people aren't even buying gifts.

I've never seen a more rude, and crazed bunch of people in my life. It's supposed to be the most caring time of the year, but all people care about anymore is getting a great deal and a bunch of stuff... I've never shopped holidays, and never will.
