Justin Bieber Doll to Save Retail?

Well its that time of the year to look at what presents will be the hottest to buy. With the crazy advertising going on this year because of the push to save the industry through holiday sales, the turnout for Black Friday is going to be crazier than ever. This yea, there are so many great deals that it would be crazy not to be able to find the cheapest price.

What is absolutely crazy about this year is that a Justin Bieber doll is suppose to raise the retail industry by a quarter this season. Now, I am not to judge what people like to listen to music wise, but a Justin Bieber doll is really that popular? Apparently books and other dolls just do not match up. I must say it is brilliant marketing done by the 16 year old's publicist. He already has completely taken over Itunes so why not the economy. At a young age he learning this market very well.
