Went to Hallmark at Lake Sumter and got my Hanukkah cards there. Never had a problem.

I didn't mean that were none, only that a very small number existed that would show that the Jewish population is in proportion small.

You won't find any Chinese new years cards in The Villages either.

Ya know, I hate to say this but get over it and don't be so suspicious. We are not Jewish outlive in a 50/50 Jewish neighborhood in Maryland.
What you bring up has nothing to do with discrimination but left over inventory. Since when would npanyone in business NOT carry something that would sell.
Be cool, veg out and get a life!

Back to the ... ",,, many white mens shirts to those stores nearby and half the bikinis.". Did the stores in question receive the bikini tops or bottoms? :)

No Halloween paper
 
I tried desperately to find Halloween wrapping paper. I'll bet I went to 5 stores and I found none. All they had was orange and black tissue paper. I wanted to wrap some Halloween gifts. I also thought....what if someone had a birthday on Halloween and you wanted to wrap their gift in Halloween paper? Not being able to find this paper doesn't mean they were discriminating against the person who may have had a birthday on that day or discriminating against the Halloween holiday. It's silly that one would think that because they couldn't find the proper Hanukkah card that they were being discriminated against. I wish people,would quit playing the discrimination card.

if there is no market or a limited market for a particular item you will not be able to find the selection that you think should be available. order via the internet; you will have an enormous selection, much larger than anything you have ever seen in any retail store.

Also, a tip for ordering over the internet. In your google search, enter "(Whatever type holiday card you want) free shipping." Might as well not pay shipping if you don't need to.
