Retil shopping habits have altered considerably over the last ten years or so, and lower profits have forced most high street stores to start their reductions before Christmas to try and claw back some business. Elsewhere, 'sales' are permanent, chains like MFI simply replace one 'sale' with another, until the term becomes meaningless.
