Why no DOOMS DAY sales?

Because there is no such thing dude.

Have you not noticed all the Mayans frantically shopping for Christmas presents :-)

Good Listening

It could be the retailers saw a way to increase sales since no one knew if the world would end right away or slowly fade into darkness. Always on the ready to make a buck, they opted for the slow death, which would mean still more sales.

Compound that with the attendant, increasing misery and you have a formulae for success as everyone would try anything to lessen the pain. Don't forget: these guys are bean counters. They look at all the angles.

All the best,

If I believed in the doomsday prediction, I would've just stolen whatever I wanted to listen to on my last day on earth.

What would your take have been? It's not too late.
