I was taken aback when I heard that Nordstrom refused to deck the halls for Christmas before Thanksgiving.
Say, whaaaaat? A retailer standing their ground? Staying true to their beliefs and values? What about the competition?!?!?
That deserved a tweet:
“For this reason alone, I would (and probably will) shop @Nordstroms. BRAVO!!! http://consumerist.com/2009/11/nordstrom-continues-to-oppose-christmas-creep.html“
I would like Mr. Nordstrom to know that I fulfilled my promise. I bought Anson Garςon a pair of TOMS ‘Classic’ Plaid Slip-On shoes for Christmas.
If I could talk with Mr. Nordstrom, I would tell him:
“Sir, I bypassed the discount at my place of employ (we’re going old-school here, people!) just so I could shop with you. Why? Because you, unlike many other retailers, upheld the sanctity of the sacred Thanksgiving holiday in this country by reserving Christmas decorations for…well…Christmas! And it was my pleasure to do business with you.”
Three cheers for @Nordstrom!
