2010 ornament exchange

[Beach Runner]

Yesterday on the way back from FL to GA I went to Hobby Lobby in Tigertown on I-85 near Auburn to get supplies for my recipient's ornament. It was closed. Sign on the door said it was closed so that their employees can go to church.

I go to church too, but I'm not there all day.:roll:

Couldn't get a Chick-Fil-A either, but I've known that for decades.;-) BTW there is a drive-thru Starbucks at Tigertown. It was packed --lots of AU flags on vehicles (wonder why? ). The only other drive-thru Starbucks I've ever seen is in the same shopping center as the Disco Kroger in ATL.

I actually think quite highly of any business that is willing to close on Sunday for the benefit of it's employees. Nice contrast to the vampire companies opening on Thanksgiving!

Can everyone who is participating in the exchange answer this question for me please, do you use Facebook?

Yep! It's the best way to stay abreast of distant family happenings.

An early Black Friday opening is practically an American Tradition. It still allows families to enjoy each others company on the actual holiday. I believe opening on Thanksgiving itself is nothing but hapless greed. Some might find it convenient to shop then, but such convience comes at the cost of lost holiday memories of those forced to work. Screw such convience.

I always assumed black Friday was so we'd be out of the house when the maid came.

I know alphacrab isn't participating and neither is destinscuba (your both wimps BTW), but I am curious if the water ever dried?
