I like the fact that they will have to work at getting us back in the stores.  Although I have no interest in buying that flat screen,  cool electronics or any of the fancy crap that they keep advertising on tv.  Then I have no desire to keep up with everyone else out there that seems to need all that to make themselves feel worthy or as good as everyone else.  Or are they trying to be happy??? &lt;br /&gt;This is exactly what the big corporations what us all to do is to go out and buy and put it all on your credit cards.  How do your think that the ceo's are going home with multimillion dollar paycheck's?&lt;br /&gt;Wake up, your doing just what they want you to do.  Don't buy it you don't really don't need it.  Your kids will still love your if you don't have all the newest crap.  Teach your children to think outside the box.  That they are intelligent human beings without having to be a "follower".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1379891692319446136-6964105507025531432?l=consumeradvocate2008.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://consumeradvocate2008.blogspot.com/feeds/6964105507025531432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1379891692319446136&amp;postID=6964105507025531432' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1379891692319446136/posts/default/6964105507025531432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1379891692319446136/posts/default/6964105507025531432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://consumeradvocate2008.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html#6964105507025531432' title='Enough is Enough'/><author><name>My bad</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ixSXhoofCiE/TZeAiLL3xSI/AAAAAAAAPzc/lqm9lALAuz8/s220/call%2Bcenter%2Blady%2Byelling.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
