Happy Thanksgiving–Buy NOTHING Day Friday

Do you love to shop? Hate to shop? Indifferent?

(this is an old video, btw, this year it is the 23rd)
Wouldn’t it be nice to give it a rest? A one day shopping fast?Should there be exceptions? Buy only one special book and only from an independent bookstore? Buy only beer, locally brewed, from the tap? When I think of Katie, the proprietor of Village Books, or Frazer Dobson of Park Road Books, I think I would exempt them. But they’re not in my neighborhood, so I ain’t buyin’ nothin’ tomorrow.
