  3. Read some analysis of Black Friday last year and the conclusion was that it's largely a con and there are few real bargains to be had.

    It would seem anything exported from the deprave subculture of usa is defined by how many people die. And if you think I'm been jingoistic please take a browse through the comments section of the independent. Which for the most part doesn't hold back peoples opinions.

  5. It's worse than I thought, not only is it one day 23rd Nov its extended till 26th. I wonder what the body count will be this year in uk & usa.
     
  6. I've seen all the ads that tell me I can 'save' thousands!

    Stupidly, I've saved nothing. I have learnt from the advertisers that by spending nothing then I save nothing. I didn't realise that in order to 'save' then you need to spend, spend, spend.

    I am sure that other people will look at their mega credit card bills and smile in the knowledge that they 'saved 'loads of money... I will look at my zero bills and frown that I didn't 'save' anything :worried:

    Incidentally, if Black Friday goes on for so much longer than one day, then why bother with Cyber Monday? I don't get it... May be we should have the government give us a Thanksgiving holiday?
