    yep, i have also heard that. I sat through one training session where the audience were told "remember we are selling a dream, not a product"

    I'm just a cynical so-and-so and tend not to believe hype/offers etc

    Absolutely Ken. I've read a few books on selling techniques and the authors have all said that people want things more when they cant have them!

    Totally fabricated by the retailers to open peoples wallets. Typical sales ploy. Create a pretend good deal or shortage.

    Well well, we ordered our furniture on Friday and despite Niddy's doubting, would you believe they have phoned and are delivering it on ...... THURSDAY, bloody hell I said to the girl you did state a 2-3 week wait and she said that they are working flat out to get all orders completed extra quick as the bosses have put them all on bonuses to get it completed before Crimbo.

    Yes I was looking at some shoes on Amazon but limited range of sizes and negative feedback, so end of line.

    going to be busy on here next year perhaps by May on-wards????

    lot of so called Black Friday Ads turn out to be get rid of non moving items which are sitting around, there are advertisers who chance public are not knowledgeable and fall for it!

    One I know ie:- Black Friday offer = 3 x 1 Ltr of Car wash/polish for £xx.xx , but not promoted in that advert is the £xx.xx 5 ltr for the same price!!
