Dear Santa

Dillard's has stopped selling a controversial holiday sign that appeared in the girls section of one of its stores in Florida. The sign read: "Dear Santa, This year please give me a big fat bank account and a slim body. Please don't mix those two up like you did last year. Thanks." The sign was supposed to be part of the home merchandise area with other "whimsical" signs, said Dillard's Spokeswoman Julie Johnson Bull. "We immediately removed it from the little girls display," she said, adding that the sign would no longer be sold in any of the chain's stores.

Nook Media, the joint partnership between Barnes & Noble and Microsoft, is appealing to scrapbookers and/or Pinterest users with a holiday video, Dear Santa, that promotes the Nook Catalog and Nook Scrapbook features on its Nook HD and HD+ devices. Nook Catalog and Nook Scrapbook were introduced with the devices when they launched on September 26.
