Yahoo! News - Wal-Mart Reports $1.43 Billion Sales Fri.
"BENTONVILLE, Ark. (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's biggest retailer, on Saturday reported record one-day sales on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving that retailers hope will jump-start sluggish sales."
Looks like the Liberals/Leftists/Tranzis/"Centrists" forgot to get this memo out to their sheeple about their "Buy Nothing Day" protest against greedy capitalism that was supposed to be staged yesterday:

What's in store for 2002
"United We Spend?" United Let's Don't.

If enough jammers turn their disaffection into resistance for just one day, November 29 could mark the delivery of a landmark social message. More than a million people will celebrate 11 years of opposition on the unofficial "opening day" of the Christmas frenzy. Play this one right and we will make Buy Nothing Day 2002 a global event on par with Earth Day.

[You don't suppose Stupid White Man Michael Moore writes their copy, do you?
Nah. That would be too weird!]
Buy Nothing Day was a colossal...failure.
BND 2002 was a global event on a par with the near-Earth transit of the Comet Kahotek.
TEE-HEE-HEE! Life is good.
