…..can only mean one thing: Black Friday. Big stores open their doors at midnight and offer huge discounts on electrical goods for one day only. Thousands swarm in and have pitched battles in the aisles, trying to grab a bargain. It’s a horrible pre-Christmas tradition imported from America where even fatter people will be fighting in Wal-Mart. I preferred the British tradition of securing a bargain: spending the night in a sleeping bag outside a department store until the doors opened at 9.00. Eccentric, civilised and based around our obsession with queuing. But Black Friday is just disgusting. I want no part of it. Wait a minute, what’s this? An email offering me 20% off everything at Selfridge’s- today only. Sorry, got to go..
Fat people fighting in Asda.
