Not spending money on the 20th
I've been hearing a lot about this via word of mouth here in Kentucky... But on the Internet I have come up dry... Has anyone else heard of this form of protest? Its premise is simple:

-Don't spend a single Penney on the 20th.

I think it would be pretty cool if enough people did this.

peace,
-KJ

1. It's actually called not a damn dime day
As far as I know. You can buy a jolly rancher or something. Those can be 5 cents in some parts of the country.

2. Know what's sad? I wasn't going to do this, because I'd be on vacation,
but now we don't even have enough money to SPEND on the 20th. Ridiculous.
