We three kings of Black Friday are... by Chuck Hansen Chesterfield Observer - Dec. 7, 2011

There is no proof that the Three Wise Men purchased their gifts for the baby Jesus at Black Friday sales. But based on the apparent importance of this perennial commercial blood bath, I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before archeologists dig up a papyrus scroll from Thanksgiving Day in the year 3 B.C. loaded with ads for the Tent-Mart at the Shoppes on Silk Road.

This Friday only starting at 2 a.m.!!! 30% off all Gold pacifiers! 2 available!!

40% off Frankincense with purchase of bath towels! 3 scent sticks available!! 50% off all 58-inch flat-screen Myrrhs! 1 per customer, 2 available!!
