Christmas Shopping Season



Today marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season, 5 weeks when US retailers make as much as half of their profit for the year.  I will be driving today, not shopping.  My shopping is nearly done, I have an Amazon order to place - they can ship to my siblings.  I will get that done in the next week.  I tend to gather gifts through the course of the year.  

Are you shopping today?

  2. Christmas shopping here is not quite so bad and t lasts until Epiphany, Three Kings Day being the traditional day to exchange gifts. But Black Friday is catching on all over aeurope. It’s kind of bizarre. No relation to its origin in the States and many stores actually currently have Black Friday Week! I hate it.
