How Does Every Holiday Sale Devolve Into This?

The Christmas shopping season always makes me think.  Companies all across the US are looking to unload their garbage onto you or your loved ones and they’re willing to use any tactic in the book.  Holiday sales used to be just Black Friday and then Cyber Monday, but now they’ve added more days and weeks to the sales and I just can’t keep track of it all.  It just seems to be a nonstop orgy of sales all the way between Thanksgiving and Christmas.  As someone without a lot of people on my Christmas shopping list, I get my Holiday shopping done early and without much fuss.  I then get to sit back and watch in complete awe as my phone, radio and email explode with special once in a lifetime offers for shit that I’ve never expressed any interest in whatsoever.

This is what every Holiday sales season feels like to me.

THE END.

P.S.  I actually left out a few of the other holidays that have been steadily added to incrementally bloat Christmas Shopping Season over the years.

P.P.S. No imaginary creatures were harmed in the making of this post.
