Boxing Day Madness!!!
I braved the stores on the 26th of December, madness some might say. I would agree but I needed a vacuum cleaner and I didn’t want to miss out. I noticed that some of the women waiting outside Target looked as if they has camped out to get front line status. I was just happy to get inside the store in one piece and my children still by my side. There were some genuine sales items like the vacuum cleaner I bought for 47% off. (Take that Mr. Kirby man!!!!) My kids got gift cards for Christmas which they happily spent and we all had KFC for lunch after our shopping was done - a good morning out for us. However I have to say that there seemed to be a “madness” in the air, impulse shopping was certainly going on around us. Retailers were rubbing there grubby little hands as shoppers bought up big and flashed credit cards here and there. The whole boxing day sale seems a bit of a con to me - some genuine sale items but lots of excess stock they simply have to move. People flocked to big red “sale” posters practically climbing over one another to grab a so called bargain……MADNESS
