Black Friday

The Friday after the US Thanksgiving is called "Black Friday." A LOT of American persons mob shopping centers to find bargain and stock up for the upcoming Xmas holiday. Everyone needs gifts. Particularly this year, when the economy "tanks" deeply, all predictions are bleak and retailers have deep worries. It is because this is the season that they expect block buster sales to turn their accounting books "black" as opposed to "red" as in bleeding to death! They need all the luck they can get because I think no one has any money nowadays. That includes me! Stores open at the wee hours and people line up starting at 4 AM. It is that crazy. One store employee was crushed to death today when the doors were stormed! Again, seen on US-1 is this "live person" ad for the local Max Muscle Sports Nutrition chain that peddles sports nutrition supplements.
