The retailers create the climate through slick marketing, whether it be the new Iphone , Ipad , Cabbage Patch Doll, or Tennis shoes made in China....we live in a culture that says you must have that to be cool, and you must have it now!...and you must wait in line for 5 hours in the cold to get it before it runs out......many of the folks who bought those shoes for $180 have already put them up on Craigs List for twice the price......for many years my family would wait til Jan. to buy gifts....Christmas means something else to me.... oy vay....

I still can't believe they did not charge the woman who pepper sprayed the people in Walmart as part of her "black friday strategy". People really are nuts and we sit back and treat it like a reality show.
