You'd Rather Do (FILL IN THE BLANK) Than Shop for Walmart Deals on Black Friday?
Walmart, Sears, Target and others are starting their Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving Thursday. We know some of you would rather (fill in the blank) than shop.
Thanksgiving Thursday is the new Black Friday, which can only mean that a lot of people are even crazier for shopping than once thought.
But not everybody.
Target, Sears and Walmart are among the chains that have decided to open their doors for Black Friday 2012 deals on Thursday, inciting a petition riot to save Thanksgiving. What's next? Black Halloween Christmas shopping?
Tens of thousands of people have already signed the electronic petition, but we want to know what you think. So, here's a little exercise. Complete the following sentence by filling in the blank in the comments section below:
"I'd rather (_________) than shop on Black Friday -- or the new, even Blacker Thursday."

I'd rather tell Obama that I love the way he is running the presidency! No, I guess I'll just go shopping.

Sheesh, I accepted football as a Thanksgiving tradition, but at least with football on TV families can stay together, even if it's in separate rooms. Go shopping? No. I feel too sorry for retail workers who have to work on a major holiday. I'm not going to reward bad behavior on the part of corporate execs who certainly aren't working on Thanksgiving or any other major holiday!
