The department stores carry what sells, so what does that say about most people. They don't decorate for ThanksGiving ... Everyone is so worried by that time, about getting everything done 4 christmas. What do you like better, eating with relatives, or getting gifts...? Me I don't do Christmas, everyone looks at it as Gifts Day, and put themselves in debt. That takes all year or longer to get paid back .. I send New Year's Greeting Cards or Season's Greatings, with postage rates who can send cards out twice or more.. One for Christmas and one for New Years....?

sometimes it is cheaper to go to the dollar store and get a box of 32 for 2 bucks and not have to have the cost of the paper then buying envelopes or making then you got the cost of glue, and ink ink is exspensive to...but look over me i'm trying to get out of my scrooge mood..lol..

I hate celebrating any holidays anymore because it is such a strain especially with the family fighting and all and it stresses me out because i try to be the peacemaker in my family so to answer your question i think they do celebrate thanksgiving they just don't do the decorations as much anymore probably for cost money reasons...

My mom decorates for thanksgiving and we do celebrate it. I noticed that before Halloween decorations were out, Christmas had aldreay made an appearance. I think the stores only make moey off of Halloween and Christams. If you go to stores like Party City you will find alot of Fall/Thanksgiving decorations.

I have seen a few thanksgiving decorations.. but mainly the christmas ones.. I think the stores do it like that because halloween and christmas are big money makers.
