People wait in line to purchase items during "Black Friday" at the JC Penney department store in Garden City, New York November 28, 2008. Stores across the United States hope to ring in billions of dollars in holiday sales beginning on Friday, but shoppers concerned about a shrinking economy have vowed to rein in their spending. Most U.S. stores start major sales on "Black Friday", the day after Thanksgiving.
