    Retail has toxified any and every holiday experience because every holiday is just “BUY BUY BUY!”

    Halloween? “BUY CANDY! JUST BUY IT OH AND BUY CHEAP DECORATIONS AND TAT TOO!” Thanksgiving? “BUY FOOD! BUY LOTS OF FOOD!” X-Mas? “BUY EVERYTHING OR UNLESS YOU’RE A SOULLESS PERSON WHO DOESN’T BUY ANYTHING FOR THOSE YOU LOVE!” Valentine’s Day? “BUY CHOCOLATES! BUY CHEAP TAT!”

    And it just cycles through every year. And you get to witness so many idiots that continue falling for the same traps, just by coming into your store every day.
