Was wondering how everyone was expecting their sales to be this year on Thanksgiving?
Based on last year im just expecting a regular day of sales.
It used to be that during the large national holidays sales would increase quite dramatically but it seems more and more over the years sales increases have actually reduced so much that most of the major holidays tend to have turned in to 'average' days when it comes to sales :(

I would assume a lot of people would be with the family... which would mean not an ideal time to look at porn :(
The last few years sales have been lower Thanksgiving day and the few days following. People are with family and shopping the sales.
Although maybe not this year with the economy how it is presently ;)Quote:

Even with economic difficulties, I think that the trend will continue this year. The reasons these people turn to porn on the holidays won't have changed... in fact, they may have more need for it.
Thanksgiving day = not the greatest, but Friday and Saturday I hope it will be good. I don't EXPECT anything, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were great sales days.
won't everyone be at the mall shopping and/or watching the latest movies?
happy holidays everyone! :)

Thanksgiving day could have been better, but Friday was better than Thursday, and Saturday had a considerable uptick over both.
But then again, Thursdays aren't the best day of the week on a historical basis anyway.
For family holidays, customers often return to normal routines after 6pm.
Holiday sales for us are higher than normal days because we send mailers out to our customers wishing them a happy holiday and such. This natually brings in sales. But if we were not to send mailers I would imagine the holidays would be pretty normal or a bit slower than normal days.

We do the same as hydepark. For the holidays we run sales, reduce membership join prices, things like this.Quote:
