10 Items or Less (2006) IMDB rating: 6.60 Plot: A well-known actor, who hasn’t accepted a role in four years, is considering a project. The cousin of the director drives him to Archie’s Ranch Market, in Carson, and drops him off to do a little research. He’s fascinated by one of the checkers, Scarlet, a young woman from Spain with a preternatural ability to ring up items at the cash register. She hates her job, stuck at the 10 items or less lane. The actor chats her up, and when her shift ends, he asks for a ride. In the course of the afternoon, he helps her prepare for a job interview. She needs to have confidence, he needs to commit. Human contact, however brief, can change people.

Is Super Bowl Sunday a "holiday"? Should stores have reduced hours that day to permit family time together?
Will Sunday, Feb. 7 be a holiday marked in those places usually open (churches, grocery stores, malls, superstores and retailers)? Do you think that people should pay more for last-minute items they are purchasing that day? Should stores sell beer / wine / liquor on that day more or less than on a usual weekend?

Super Bowl Sunday is NOT a holiday. No sporting event (as far as I know) is any kind of holiday. Not everyone cares about football (surprise) so if they want to go shopping, then they should be able to go shopping. Stores should remain open for regular Sunday hours, they should NOT close early because someone wants to go home and watch TV. They can tvo it or record it or watch online later, etc. Super Bowl Sunday should be the same as any other Sunday as far as I’m concerned.

I have to say absolutely NOT. I believe all of our holidays are way to over commercialized already. I tell you one thing, the day churches close for the superbowl is a VERY VERY VERY sad day indeed. There is nothing to celebrate in a bunch of men running around on a field chasing a ball and getting paid way more to do it then they should be. There is no reason for us to have to pay more for it either.

You want to celebrate someone important lets make a bigger deal out of Teachers Day or Doctors or even Trashmen. At least they actually do something important for our country.

Super Bowl super sale is a great marketing tool to get customers into their store and buy lots of stuff.

Grocery stores will put party items out like chips, soda, paper plates. Some manufacturers offer a lower price per item when bought in bulk. So the grocery stores can offer half price on this and that.

Department stores know that many people want to get away from the loud people shouting at the TV and will entice them with this-day-only sale prices.

Stores should not reduced their hours. Super bowl Sunday is not a holiday; it is an event.

Stores should not raise their prices just for this one day or for any holiday or event.

However stores can lower their prices before hand to entice people to shop early and avoid the rush of last minute shoppers.

Those who don’t like Pro Football (American) can’t be subjected to a sports-related luxury for those fans and their spouses/significant others — the answer is No it’s not a holiday to change anything for!

Any church that does a SUPER – bowl theme is worshipping a "fatted Gold-plated calf" (bloated consumerism)
