Shoppers Undeterred By Wal-Mart Protests
WalMart Has Its BEST Black Friday Ever
Reuters: OUR Walmart, an organization backed by the United Food &
Commercial Workers (UFCW) union, said it expected employees in 100
cities to walk off the job on "Black Friday," the unofficial start of
the holiday shopping season that accounts for up to one-half of
retailers' profits.
At a Walmart on Chicago's South Side, just one employee from the
store's nearly 500 staff took part in the demonstration, according to
Wal-Mart Stores Inc, the world's largest retailer.
"We estimate that less than 50 associates participated in the protest
nationwide. In fact, this year, roughly the same number of associates
missed their scheduled shift as last year," Walmart U.S. Chief
Executive Bill Simon said in a statement.
For its part, Walmart said it recorded its best Black Friday ever,
with more shoppers than last year and nearly 10 million register
transactions between 8 p.m. Thursday and 12 a.m. Friday morning. Among
other items, it sold more than 1.8 million towels, 1.3 million TVs and
some 250,000 bicycles.

Sounds like propaganda to piss off the unions but maybe it was their
best year since last year.
I don't believe the corporate propaganda any more than I believe Obama's
Socialist propaganda.

The economy sucks, it's unlikely that they had the best year ever, but
being a discount store I don't doubt that anyone that actually has money
would gravitate to the best price on things they intend to actually
buy.....


I'm going to get a few basic needs but it won't be any Christmas things
and I'll buy as little as possible until Christmas is over and then I'll
stay on my path to Preparing for Obama's destruction of the economy.

They need to work because they know they won't be getting a Job making
Twinkies for Hostess or baking any Bread or snacks.

So they were opened an extra 4 hours that they counted as BLACK FRIDAY?
I figured they diddled the numbers.

The chuckle is that the Unions are not producing Anything other than
stolen and stuffed ballot boxes, no one turns out in Wisconsin for their
UNION circle jerk and no one shows for any of their BIG protests.....
But we are supposed that they actually drummed up more legitimate votes
for Obama and tilted that election ?

I say no one showed up for that and they ran their "paid bus loads" of
the same derelicts and welfare people around to many different voting
places to hide the fact that they had to stuff the ballot boxes. The
proof is that Obama recieved 90% and better at many voting places.

It was a coup. It was a non violent coup.
