It's Not Just Sears

Time was, Sears was THE store. That old Sears catalog was dog-eared and bookmarked beyond its original appearance.

Nowadays, it's Walmart. At least they haven't brought out the Christmas stuff yet.

But it appears that it's not only Sears who is on the Christmas Creep bandwagon - this, from CompUSA this AM:

While "Black Friday" is actually the day after Thanksgiving, the term refers to the day where retailers can finally, after a year fraught with dismal sales, can finally make it into the "black".

That CompUSA feels the need by jumping the gun by four months doesn't bode well for them.

Or are they jumping the shark?
