So which store is selling holidays? Do they have all holidays in stock? If they are out in the store, can you order one?

Shopping might have been up, but very little profits this year since they all had to take a hit just to sell over stocked product.- miketroll3572

You do understand that your made up 'facts' are simply made up?

Oleguy,

-Christmas today and 50 plus years ago,, Its a sad time and a shame where the USA has gotten too.

Please list actual examples.

-50 Years ago Kids could go to school, say a prayer, read the bible and feel safe.

No one is ever “safe,” kids still go to school, and they are quite free to pray…as always.

- Our LIBERAL Govt has stopped that, now look at our schools.

With AC and computers? People of all colors allowed in the same building? Teaching science instead of the ‘seven day creation’ thing that left out the dinosaurs? Teaching teens about sex-ED and a far lower teen pregnancy rate?

- We the people must come up with a plan.

Like what?

- The USA cant take 50 more years of this Change and Hope,

I think it’s only been 4 years.

- GOD bless America and save us all from shopping

Now you are on topic!

Definitely has nothing to do with the weather. Wish I could vacation in Hawaii.

OH PLEASE. Has nothing to di with rain. We women shop in hail, rain, sleet and snow. It is because of no money...no jobs...no hope for economic recovery in sight. Get real...the rest ofmus don't live in fairyland where we can sprint off to Hawaii while the country goes to h$&l in a handbasket, and where our children are protected by armed guards at their schools. We live in the real world where we go to bed and gas, already too high is $3.16 a gallon and wake up to it now being $3.26 a gallon. Say what? THAT Is called price gouging.
