Recession Makes Me Want to…Shop!

This weekend, I noticed a local store window with several signs promoting its blowout “economic stimulus sale.” Dominos has similarly launched a “recession-buster deal.” I even saw Craigslist postings using the recession as a marketing message.

IMHO there’s nothing better than reminding me of our country’s financial woes to entice me to spend more money. Sure, the economy’s tanking, but at least now I can get 20 percent off everything!
