But part of that, and I think Scandia said it...is recycling old stuff and getting credit towards new stuff. But in general, when I opened the thread, with the way I still see people out in the malls and buying stuff...I guess...who is really being affected?
If anyone is going out on Black Friday early, be sure to report back a lot of what you see people purchasing. Are they purchasing big ticket items like TVs, game systems and Home Theaters? Or smaller stuff? Or...lesser of the big ticket stuff? |
