Thanksgiving Weekend news for AK: Economy gets a Boost, Palin Continues Nationwide Book Tour

It’s been a great weekend for Black Friday sales in Anchorage AK.  According to a recent report from KTUU.com, retailers were pleasantly surprised by the turnout despite some winter weather.  In comparison to sales last year, Anchorage retailers such as Best Buy have seen an increase of sales for this past holiday weekend; even after the doorbuster sales were over, customers were still interested in finding values, giving the local economy a great boost to kick off the holiday season.

Also notable for Thanksgiving weekend in national news, was the thousands of fans lined up with former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s new book “Going Rogue” for a book signing event in Richland WA; this is part of Palin’s nationwide book tour.
