Well, those of us who took macroeconomics in college know that there's another factor at work: they also bought more stuff. Not everyone understands this, but economics is a tricky subject.

I myself did my part to contribute-- I got all my Xmas shopping outta the way for my friends in about an hour. Got some seriously cool stuff and spent no more than $20 per person. I tell ya, Wal-Mart kicks butt!! [img]smile.gif[/img]
