Thanksgiving and Black Friday

Hello Everyone,

I'll be on vacation all of next week to enjoy Thanksgiving in sunny Florida.  I hope each of you will be among friends and family during this time of year.  I won't be blogging during the week so I'm going to pop this final post up.  Seems Black Friday is the theme that makes the most sense and there is plenty of good writing and/or news on the subject.



First up is a piece on Amazon.com and their preparations for Black Friday (and ostensibly Cyber Monday):

Next is a piece on Wal-Mart starting Cyber Monday early:

Finally a question I find easy to answer: Should Retailers be Open on Thanksgiving?

No.

Here is the article:

Hope you enjoy your turkey and have a fun and safe holiday.

Best regards,

J.W. Gant
