Black Friday, what a total con

Call me a Bah Humbug but this Black Friday thing is a total F**king con, the so called sale prices are no different to the past, they hiked up the prices for a while so they could bring them down, it's all designed to make you spend money you didn't need to. As long as they advertised a product somewhere, anywhere at a certain price for a specified period of time they can legitimately then say it's on sale when in fact it is back down at the RRP.

If you know how to shop around you can get bargains all year long.

It's no different to the new year sales, anything that IS cheap is cheap for a reason and it's the crap they want to shift. On amazon they are selling all manner of crap, I mean, who wants a life size squirrel?



Retail business theory is fascinating when you understand it. They convince people they are getting lots of money off but these retail businesses are not losing money here, they are extremely clever in how they approach this.[/img] Discovery 4 HSE

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

New Zealand 2010 Range Rover Autobiography 5.0 SC V8 Galway Green

Being a "proper" Dutchman (only in this respect I sincerely hope), I tend to either buy early when the prices are normal or don't buy until the real sales start in January and even then I hunt for a long time to get a low price. I really hate this type of "stuff the customer, lets bleed extr money from them" attitude. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

I've just been watching some of the tesco store videos and there are fights breaking out. It's incredible.
If there was ever a food shortage here the same people would probably kill for a loaf of bread. Previously..
