Operation Red Friday - Lets keep it in Canada

A good friend of mine who is with HBC in Toronto told me Canada is going to have a day (November 29th?-the day (Friday)after the American Thanksgiving)called Operation Red Friday to compete with Black Friday in the States. Many Canadian retailers are already included and the sales are going to be incredible, such as an HD Flat screen TV - 40" for $399. He said that so far The Brick (who started this), Sears, HBC, Canadian Tire, Best Buy, Leons and others I can't remember are going to be involved. Like the states, the stores will really early and have specials during certain hours. Those of us that live in border cities who may have headed south on this day can now stay in Canada and spend your Christmas shopping money here.
Happy Shopping!

As long as we don't fall into the TRAP of buying STUFF just because of a sale. We wouldn't want to be considered sheep who consume just because we're told to but because we have thought about what we need and have been able to wait until Red Friday to save some money and shop at home. Its not like we need to keep up with the Jones'.
Can you tell I have no spending money?
