CompUSA announced plans to open from 9am to midnight on Thanksgiving night, giving it, and its customers, a jump on Black Friday.

Christmas Creep, indeed.

“The holidays are over commercialized as it is,” Joy Weaver, an ethics writer, said. “To take us away from our families and away from giving thanks just so they can make another dollar is wrong.”

Who says it has to be so divisive? Why not bring the whole family along for some quality shopping time. They can stand in line for you, fan out for deals, run and screen plays when dashing for the last $100 laptop. — BEN POPKEN
