WITH THE FAILURE OF THE SUPERCOMMITTE...AND THE GENERAL DECLINE OF INCOMES AND REAL JOBS...BLACK FRIDAY SEEMS TO BE HEADING FOR MORE GLOOM...
MANY STORES ARE DE-STOCKING FOR THE SEASON... TARGETS HOLIDAY SECTION IS BARE BONES...THIS YEAR... IT SEEMS THAT NO ONE WANTS TO BE STUCK WITH UNSOLD INVENTORY...
AS TO THE OTHERS...MANY ARE AFRAID OF ONLINE SALES... THE B&M STORES ARE OFTEN USED AS SHOWROOMS FOR ELECTRONICS THAT PEOPLE THEN BUY ONLINE...WITHOUT PAYING SALES TAXES...!
THE USUALY HYPE ABOUT THE SEASON SEEMS MORE SUBDUED THAN NORMAL THIS YEAR...UNLIKE PRIOR YEARS WHERE THE HAPPY TALK WAS FLOWING BY NOW...
ONLY TO BE PULLED BACK AFTER THE WEEKEND WAS OVER...
THERE IS AMAZINGLY LITTLE TALKE ABOUT THE BLACK FRIDAY SALES THIS YEAR...
ALSO NOTED...AMAZON HAS A PRINT SALES SECTION IN MANY NEWSPAPERS...! PROVING THAT WHAT STARTS ONLINE ...CAN GO TO OTHER MEANS OF ADVERTIZING...
AMONG THE B&M STORES...NO ONE WANTS TO BE THE NEXT BORDERS...!
