Well, Labor Day is the traditional start to the Christmas shopping season. I've already bought a few things.
Just about pulled the trigger on one of those $350 Dells, just because I was already planning to buy myself a monitor for the holidays. Then a sudden jolt of sanity hit me and I was able to stop myself.
I work in a department store and come Christmas we are sick of it. We've had Christmas for three months and are glad to see it go. I know that sounds terrible but you be surounded with Christmas stuff for that long!
