America: a coast-to-coast mall

The Los Angeles Times reports:

“The holiday shopping season got off to a strong start over the weekend as consumers handed the nation’s retailers an early Christmas gift.”

“The National Retail Federation, the industry’s main trade group, said Sunday that 133 million people hit the stores, plunking down $22.8 billion. That was more than 10% of the $220 billion that merchants hope to rake in by the end of December.”
