Nothing says it's the holidays like a woman being trampled and losing her wig.
Looks like we've once again kicked off egg nog season with a crazed stampede for $79 TV/DVD combos and $375 laptop computers. (Actual prices and products may vary.)
Black Friday has always been a bit manic and demented, but it definitely took a turn for the worse this year. Maybe it was that woman on the floor struggling to reposition her wig. Perhaps it was the man getting kicked in the nads in the parking lot. Whatever the case, the scenes that most sane people saw on the news weren't exactly festive.
Fair or not, Wal-Mart seems to be getting the worst PR out of the day. I'm sure it won't affect their holiday sales, but it's becoming clear that at some point their lowest common denominator approach will start to hurt them. Their move to offer different products on their web site indicates they might be thinking the same thing.
The whole thing makes me happy there's still an outfit like Shatto elevating something as basic as milk.
