The busiest and the biggest, is what I always heard.

LOL! I don't think I'll shop, but I'll go out and watch. I tried to go last year, but couldn't spark up the energy to get up that early on my day off. :wink:

There is no question about it, nationally, the day after Thanksgiving is the busiest shopping day.

Firefighter, you're not a fireman. :)

I would tend to think that any weekend day from this past weekend up until Christmas, and also Black Friday, are/will be the busiest shopping days of the year. And of course the day after Christmas will be busy with exchanges and people looking to make the most of the money they got for Christmas.

These are times when the last place on earth I want to be is in a shopping mall.
