With all the complaints on SA, Home Depot and others organizations , it makes one wonder where is the holiday spirit? I am not sure about everywhere else but here in north Alabama,most of our charities are very polite and even though we are a small town our best community and educational support comes from local businesses. No I can't always give, but I can always send up a silent prayer of thankfullness that there are others who can and do and those who ,obviously amoung the throng of evil bell ringers, still stand in the freezing cold for the good of those less fortunate. As for boycotting any store.. well wouldn't that be a whole lot like I am not gonna play with today because I don't like you but next week when this is over and I need something you have I will be back. Come on folks, this is a time of the cheerful giver ( whether its time money prayers or a simple smile) Here is a thought.. next time a collecter makes an ugly remark or look, try saying Happy holidays or Bless you. Sure does make for a better example when your children are watching............ Time for me to hush now back to finding best BF deals )
