Black Friday, Wednesday, Monday, Weekend?

Day 25 of the Blog a Day. When did a major shopping day turn into a major shopping week? Black Friday is no longer known as the day after Thanksgiving or the busiest shopping day of the year. The economy is bad, people are out of work and the recession has been strong. There is hope on the horizon, they say the recession is over. That means that according to experts people will not be holding onto their money as much this year because they expect to be keeping their jobs or finding new ones soon. But greed is setting in. Stores know that people are looking for deals and even though Black Friday is popular, it's also a mad house. People have died outside of Walmarts waiting for the doors to open or by being trampled when they do. And with E-Commerce being more popular then ever, why go to the brick and mortar stores, when you can roll out of bed and check your email to make a purchase. So now you see deals for Late Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, early Friday morning, early Saturday, and even Cyber Monday for all of you internet shoppers. Of course if your like me you have been broke for the last couple of years and Black Friday don't mean shit when your trying to make rent a week later.
