I hate, hate, hate it.<br /><br />I'm not much of a shopper either. It has always been my habit to stay away from the box stores and only patronize them when absolutely necessary. I have always advocated buying local and small. <br /><br />I did head to a local small village for small business Saturday and bought a few items. I will go back there for a few more and get some other items from local merchants and that will be it. No big box stores for holiday shopping for me. <br /><br />LeighAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2855311767753471161.post-81148213882696209462011-11-28T16:38:13.109-05:002011-11-28T16:38:13.109-05:00Rant away!

It stay in my local economy and none of them open or force their employees to work these crazy hours. I have never liked Black Friday and never participated in the madness but for the past 6 years or so I am bound and determined to try and buy as much american made and local as I can. That is where I will throw my two cents :-)abcsofrahttp://abcsofra.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
