I want to experience an American Thanksgiving. I am sure it is simular to Canada's, but I like the idea of 2 days off of work, one to watch football, one to sleep (sleep, not shop), and then a weekend!
American Black Friday is like Canada's Boxing Day. Everyone gets up at 3 in the morning to wait outside a Futureshop or something. I would rather stay home and play with toys, it is basically just an extended day of Christmas, but with shopping.
