"Son of Black Friday"?
Posted by Gordon Smith
Retailers are hoping for a huge Saturday before Christmas. Reports on holiday shopping are mixed. WaPo is rosy, NYT is glum, and W$J is cautious. I was out shopping today, and customers were surprisingly scarce. Maybe people had already completed their shopping online? Online shopping got another boost this year, rising 24% from last year. I am too much of a shopping procrastinator for that. Maybe next year.
