Alternative to "Black Thursday"

It seems that the love of money has overtaken Sears-unlike other stores which at least are closed Thanksgiving morning and afternoon to give their employees a break to spend with their families, Sears has decided to be open all day Thursday. So it seems now we have "Black Thursday" joining "Black Friday" as days where people are encouraged to spend whatever money they have left in their pockets for Christmas gifts....

Well how about something a little different....something like Project Angel Tree. Remember there will be some who won't have a Christmas with their family, because a member of their family is shut away in prison. But we can help their families remember what the real reason for the season is by being a Christ-like example in giving to help these families...you can go to http://www.angeltree.org/deliverlove and donate there or and this is something that is new this year, you can help to be a fundraiser to help Angel Tree be able to give to families where they don't have a church that is helping Angel Tree this year at http://www.firstgiving.com/angeltree

Let's remind Sears and all these other stores where it seems that the love of money has overtaken love of family and love for others what this season should be about.....
