I think that Since alot of stores are offering more sales and some are offering prizes that they can get shoppers in a good mood! the main one will be best buy because they're offering hot chocolate an movies to be played waiting in line

I think lowering the prices of toys and or gifts is a good way to make the community start buying things for the holidays.

i think that since now there are more sales at affordable prices, people will actually get into the holiday mood, but everybody is different, financially. some people might be able to afford certain sales and others might not.

Its good that stores are trying harder to get people to buy. With the shape our economy is in, people are going to need some serious encouragement to "loosen their wallets". I believe the incentives the stores are offering may make people more willing to spend money.

yes the early morning shopping and freezing outside overnight are fun, but what happened to homemade gifts and goodies for the people we love. now is the time to put more heats, not cash, into our gifts.

Its good that there lowering prices in stores, but I don't know how long that will last because of the economy. I hope that this is a beacon of light.

the stores are making people work hard for the things that there kids want like seating outside for 3 hours then going in and not getting what they want because they are out of it but in the long run its good to.

The economy is becoming desperate for sales, but I can't overall blame them. With the economy in the financial paranoia it is in, people needs these sales.

Christmas shopping will be easier since they can get better prices for gifts. But that also could mean the toys of choice would be sold out and then when they are back in time for Christmas, they become expensive and hard to purchase.
It's good to have low prices for toys, but it's bad when you no longer have anything available to you.

i think that since stores are doing more sales and are offering lower prices and prizes people are going to be more motivated about shopping so it will bring more shoppers out causing businesses to make more money....its basically getting people in the holiday mood! which is a good thing!

i think stores are being smart for a change by making toys more affordable. this will help the economy because now people will want to buy more stuff. i believe this will make people want to buy more which will improve bussiness.
