Have You Ever Camped Outside For The Boxing Day Sales?

[plowter]

Have you ever camped outside for the Boxing Day sales?

Nearest I got was today when the supermarket wouldn't let me buy beer because it was before 10 am. Had to camp at the till for ten minutes. It was inhuman! Thought I was doing them a favour by getting my last minute shopping early. Ungrateful sods.

Plowter, shame on them. I don't think i have ever wanted anything enough to camp overnight to join a queue and jostle for ages. Not me no !

[ladybird49]

Yes ... Donkeys years ago for a duvet , it cost me £1.00 , it was a quality one ,lasted for years

[Prudie]

No as I've never seen a bargain worth it. My daughter's boyfriend did this year to get a Johnny Cupcake tee-shirt. It does make me wonder.....

[Bluestone]

No. I can think of much better things to do.

[Arksided]

no, can't say that I have, but have being gently prodded awake reminding me that it was "JOHN" Constable that painted the Haywain.

No early morning sales for me. My porridge comes first!!! x lol

[plowter]

Arksided, those late night security guards outside the National Gallery sound really informative.

[Nibble]

No, I've never wanted anything that badly....

[Arksided]

should have seen me at work yesterday morning, our bright spark manager left a message, 'open at 10.30 for browsing' eejit, try telling 20 Andy Capps 'sorry can't sell you a paper til 11AM' GRRRRRRRRR

[plowter]

Dotty, it always amazes me how shop staff (how very Downton Abbey!) manage to stay calm in the face of rabid zombies with cash.

Hope you survived. Have a good Christmas.

45 years experience plowter, i may diss the bastards in private but they're all the same pea brained plebs to me

[plowter]

Hope you get a couple of days off, Dotty. You deserve it.
