Where did you get this list? I recall seeing a large nativity scene last year in the Bass Pro Shops when I was buying my husband some stocking "stuffers." Instead of bringing gold, frankincense and myrrh, the three wise men were bringing gifts of fishing lures and rubber worms. Surely that would give the store a "GREEN" rating.

ReplyDeleteI'm surprised to see Target on the green list. When I went to my local Target, they had Hannukah candles but no candles suitable for an Advent wreath.
