boxing day sales in canada = huge
"day after christmas sales" in states = mild
black friday sales in states = huge

Why the hell would stores be throwing themselves at a chance to do away with extra merchandise after THANKSGIVING?

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 12/27/2004, 2:06 am

its like.. a month before christmas so in that respect
its "ideal" shopping time for the holidays to get everything done

so your saying without that day, they couldnt just go out and buy the stuff anyways?

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 12/27/2004, 2:21 am

no
without that day the shops wouldnt have as many sales :nod:

Gimme_Shelter · Post by **Gimme_Shelter** » 12/27/2004, 2:22 am

alomst all shops have sales now and then
if you just buy the stuff through out the year you dont have to worry about it

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 12/27/2004, 2:24 am

that would be common sense
but since when has common sense ever prevailed for the better part of the human race?

Gimme_Shelter · Post by **Gimme_Shelter** » 12/27/2004, 2:29 am

i do have to agree with that

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 12/27/2004, 2:32 am

well there ya go

nikki4982 · Post by **nikki4982** » 12/27/2004, 2:50 am

By the way, it is in fact called "Black Friday".

And what a horrible day 'tis.

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 12/27/2004, 2:59 am
