        That's a fair and valid point, but the companies don't really care as long as they get their sale (in hindsight what I said was poorly worded.

        Loads of reasons not to go queuing.
        DWP don't consider being serious ill a good reason - I doubt Tesco's et al would.

                Is it me, or is this Black Friday thing hyped up? Stores just trying to off-load stock before Christmas: in the case of electronics, much of these are probably old models. Am still hanging on for some of my Christmas shopping, as I know shops have further reductions nearer Christmas. And I know I risk getting egg on my face, when all the cut price stuff is sold and I end up paying full price ....

                As far as Black Friday goes, I live not far from Bicester Village and it has just been on the local news that traffic has been queuing for THREE hours to get there - and when they get there they can'f find anywhere to park! Probably why online shopping is so popular ...

                  I've just watched it on the news, I'm sorry but I am ashamed to see it, us English are reputed to be cool and calm and what I saw was a load of people acting like pack animals.

                      I am afraid to say no such thing as a non capitalist tory

                      The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, welfare is paid to the minimum number and wages are kept to a minimum to increase profit

                      So endeth the lesson

                        What an apt description, Sapphy. "Pack animals" describes it exactly - except animals do it for their food and these people do it for flat screen tellies!

                          absolute madness isnt it! people queueing up for hours in the cold, fighting, accidents, police - and all to give money to a retailer! I am all for a discount, but at what cost?!
                          is it me, or the majority sheep? i.e just follow whatever your mate, relative, neighbour is about to do?!
                          When Gold isn't enough, there is SA Gold! New to the forum and find the UE route a bit scary? Take a look at my diary here and judge for yourself. I am now saving the money each month that was making little difference to the balance and not a bit of difference to my credit file as a result of finding AAD.

                            I agree with you SA Gold. I don't think the discounts are worth it.

                              to be honest Pixie, i haven't really looked what they are offering in the superstores,but would hazzard a guess its only carp they need to shift on before the dates expire/ new model comes out anyway!

                                How many people see some discounts and then assume that everything is cheaper? They won't be working at a loss, they just catch your attention and once you are hooked .......
