  2. Small toy shops expect bright holiday

  3. Is this Cyber Monday the last without sales tax?

    Retail analysts reported a curious trend this Black Friday. On the traditional first shopping day of the Christmas season, the number of visits to malls, big box stores and other retailers increased, according to the analytics firm ShopperTrak, but the amount spent in brick-and-mortar businesses actually went down slightly from last year's total. Online shopping, meanwhile, jumped ahead of its traditional Cyber Monday kick-off and exceeded $1 billion on the Friday after Thanksgiving for the first time. Online shopping was up sharply on Thanksgiving day, too, according to comScore. That means many people braved the frenzied crowds and jammed parking lots to check out the holiday season merchandise, but when it came time to buy, they went home and logged on.

  12. 'Glee' recap: Dynamic Duets

    Things I'd rather be doing than watching "Glee" on Thanksgiving night: 1) Watching the Patriots and the Jets (generally speaking, I can't stand Cry Baby Brady, but he's my fantasy QB, so I need him to crush the Jets.); 2) Watching the Michael Jackson special; 3) Getting an early start on my holiday shopping with Black Friday sales; 4) Just about anything else.
