The only sale I ever really bother with is the Boots 70% one and that never happens until mid to late January...

I have been trying to buy some Christmas cards on line but they are mostly all sold out. Only rubbish ones left.
I made a few purchases in the last couple of days, some bedding, a griddle pan, some water filters and some jumpers. All at very good prices and with free delivery.

I never go shopping on Boxing Day. If I can't have at least 2 days out of the year that are not like all the others I don't see any point to all the Christmas build up. So no shopping here :evil: :P

I have a friend who gets up at stupid o'clock to go to the Next sale (actually I have two who do that but one works there so doesn't have much choice ;) ).
I did a weekly shop at the weekend, plus a few extras, so we have plenty in the house to keep us going so that I don't need to go anywhere near the town centre for several days yet :D

You wouldn't catch me anywhere near any shops for the rest of this week at least. But the internet though..............now that's a different kettle of fish altogether.

I agree with Loz and I feel for the staff that have to work. I would love everyone to boycott the shops on Boxing Day so that maybe next year the greedy management would think again and people would get a decent break for Christmas.

Sorry off my soapbox now

I watched Sky news this morning and the hordes of people streaming into the big stores. :o

Like they hadn't bought enough before the actual big day. :(

Jeeeez :evil: :evil:
