Are we in a recession?

Recently, my son and I were at a popular fast food eatery. In all my years, I can't remember the time when popular fast food establishments didn't include toys with their kids meals. Well, it happened. I ordered my son a kids meal and he didn't even get a toy. As he complained, I looked around to notice that this wasn't a mistake, but there was no advertisement as usual mentioning toys for the kids.

I have also noticed many other recession-type cutbacks among leading companies. What have you noticed?

I think people are afraid, and companies are being stingy.

We as Christians should not fear but we should continue to be faithful, generous, hard-working, and trusting in the Lord. But I'm sure I don't need to tell you that! :)

That means you don't shop at that establishment any longer.. and be sure to email the corporate HQ and tell them that they lost your business over a 2 cent toy cutback.

You are spending your money as usual and you expect to get the usual service.
