Bargain Hunters

27 December 2010

BOXING Day bargain hunters crammed stores yesterday to make it Britain's biggest shopping day ever

Summery
Millions of people hunted for bargains on Boxing Day. Some people were already waiting in the shopping streets the night before and at many car parks were blocked, whilst shops did not open until . The prices dropped with 50 to 75% and sometimes even 90%. These discounts even attracted shoppers from Asia, were tour operators offer ‘lightening trips’ because many want to buy designer brands with these discounts. People were running around in the shops and screaming to each other to try and get the best bargains. After the next few days many people will end up in the red and the shops will have earned 22.5 billions pounds together.

It is amazing that so many people try to get the best bargains. I have an image in my head of people running around, screaming and fighting over stuff, whilst pulling at each others hair. I cannot imagine that you want something so badly that you would fight over it. I can remember that we had something similar ones here when H&M sold clothes from a special designer and maybe when the Bijenkorf has its three days of discount it gets busy too. I do not think though that we could have anything near what they describe about shopping on Boxing Day in London.
