If it wasn't for having a child, I'd say none. But since I do: X-mas.

I do notice the quality of presents I give is much higher than received...but not this year. I'm giving just as crappy gifts as I'll be receiving/throwing in the trash.

Gotta be Christmas for me, It's also (much to my wallets dismay) my sons birthday.

Maybe you should add an "other" option to the poll. Personally I love Lunar New Year, especially since I'm not married.

Christmas by far. Presents, family, good food and the Christmas spirit. You go to a shopping mall a week or two before Christmas and you can just feel the energy and the excitement of the people. Every time around this year, I get that warm feeling that I wish would stay with me the entire year.

I dare you to go to the Wal-Mart where I live. You'll have at least 2 vehicles not yield on the crosswalk, and almost run you down. From there you'll have at least 6 shopping carts rammed into you for every 15 minutes there. At least 3 people will cuss you for picking up the last item of whatever they were about to buy off the shelf. The rudeness is evident everywhere you turn. And the police have to be present 24/7 due to fights that break out.

I do live close to Oklahoma. And this is Texas.

I can't wait to move to Indiana!

My favorite used to be Black Friday, till I ended up working in the retail segment... Now, I guess it's Christmas, since I am guaranteed the day off

I honestly can't remember when I last went to Wal-Mart.

I love the whole Christmas/New Years season because I get from Dec 20th to Jan 3rd off paid (not using any vacation days).
