We have gone shopping and more. A lot of stores are wanting to unload what they did not sell over the Christmas shopping season. Some stores like Best Buy did not expect to sell as much as they did.

2011 has been a very good year. 2012 will be an even better year. We are taking a little break to rest, and refocus for the coming year. It is our goal to show where to find more money saving deals.

I was looking back over Shopping with The Shopping Nazi. There are so much more that can be added. I am going to spend the next couple of weeks to add the material. At least two more chapters will be added; After Care, along with Safe Practices for Computers and Cell Phones. When we return on January 10th, you will get the Reader’s Digest version of After Care.

In that week the weekly podcast will return on the TalkShoe podcasting network, and maybe a few others.

In the words of The Terminator, “I’ll be back!” When we coming back we will be terminating waste of our hard earned money. So until January 10th Happy Shopping.

Thanksgiving is Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and football. Smells coming from the kitchen are so inviting taste testers. To much food, and to little exercise make this day a time of family and friends.

The year is almost over. It seems the period of time between Thanksgiving and New Years Day is the payday for the work done the rest of the year. Today, is the day we set aside to be thankful for what has come our way. It does not matter if has been good and bad. Things could of have been a lot worse.

We are thankful for:

Today is Blog Action Day for 2011. This is when bloggers everywhere raise their voices as one voice. So many times bloggers express their opinions in different directions. Today, we all want express our voice in one specific direction. That direction is about to talk about food. I want to address the issue of hunger, and famine. Why?

In the world we live today there is no reason for an one child to elderly adult to go hungry. We have the scientific advance to grow food just about any where we want. The real reason of hunger comes from greedy, mean men and women who do not want to share the resources they have.

I am reminded of a Sunday School lesson where the Children of Israel where wondering in the wilderness. They could go out a gather the food they needed for that day. Everyone had plenty. Some of the people went out and gathered more than their share. The tried to store up the extra food. By the next morning that extra food was rotten.
