Holiday Shopping During An Economic Crisis

Tweet

One of the biggest questions on everyone's mind this year is this: will the failing economy affect how much people spend on Christmas this year? Today is Black Friday, the mother of all shopping days, and people are still flocking to thier local shopping centers to get the best deals. Some even camp out over night. Now one would think that the current status of economy would have people hiding out during this season. This is not the case. Perhaps now more than ever, people are seeking out those special deals at any cost, so that they can afford to give thier families great gifts this year. The lack of wealth can cause people to do crazy things- like shove each other to get the last TMX Elmo ( this is just an example.) Whatever you choose to do this year, just remember to be safe, shop smart, and try to avoid using credit cards, since they are a big source of debt. Happy Shopping!
