Re: It's that time of the year again...Black Friday
Black Friday is the way Americans get into the Spirit of Christmas.
Obviously, channeling the urge to spend money you haven't got on things you don't really need and punch, kick and trample your fellow man to get to them first is what you do to really get in the Christmas mood.
Sadly, some Canadians are also irresistably drawn to this appalling display of consumerist greed and base human nature.
MillieF and friends aren't missing anything at all.

Black Friday is even more fun if you're in retail and have to spend the day listening to people bemoaning the lack of deals compared with the US and then trying to haggle with you over the price of everything.
Black Friday over here really just gives people more of an excuse to act like tools

$5b? That's every single person in Canada spending $150.
Who came up with that figure? The association of butthurt Canadian retailers?
