The "Sales"

[Josh-H]

Has anyone else been really dissapointed with the sales? They havn't been that cheap imo, just the same deals they had before christmas.

Everywhere is still majorely busy though!

[Wayne]

In the shops I've been in, mostly clothes stores, they are selling things 50% off and that. Stores that sell DVDs, video games and that aren't reducing prices that much though unfortunately.

Edit: Although Gamestation yesterday had some reduced games, such as about £5-£15 off.

it's better in January anyway. i'm going shopping today too so idk, better something off than nothing

I went in gamestation and the deals weren't very good?

River Island and Topman had like 3 racks of sale rubbish then the rest was normal price.

[VPSwow]

I got a nice new TV that was 40% off so im not too disapointed :P.

[Andeeh]

The credit crunch children. :(

january should have better deals

[Wayne]

The sales were across Gamestation, most games had some sort of reduction.

[Andeeh]

Yea gamestation does i saw ghwt £20 cheaper :)

[Bun]

they're well bad :(.

[Starburst..x]

The sales get on my nerves anyway, its all rubbish stuff they put out that they couldn't sell before (particularly clothes shops) and all left-over clothes from the summer etc, and if there is any decent items, you have to get there mega early just to try find them.
The pushing and shoving is pathetic as well, I remember last year there was a sales assistant in the news because some woman (customer) bit her for whatever reason.
Roll on the end of sales lol
(thats my rant for the day:D)

[cocaine]

a hoody i bought in topman was a tenner instead of 22 quid. was good

[buttons]

i got 3 hoodies for £18 today :8 worth £54 so yay

[today]

Our sales are great, well yesterday we had massive sales items worth loads.
Leather jacket was £140, went down to £50! And other bargins loved it lol

[Indie-Dan]

The sales have been pretty good for me so far, I got a couple of t-shirts from New Look for like £5 each and today i got a pair of jeans from River Island for £20, not too bad.

[Pyroka]

The sales have been on for ages, its just now you notice there isn't much left. The place I work put out a whole floor of sale stuff on the 26th, its 2 days later and we're already running low on some stuff. River Island's got no good stuff anymore where I am, and yeah... lol

We had a sale saturday, hardly anything left today.
Infact not enough stock left we've had to relaunch full price again.

[Pyroka]

Yeah I went into River Island which is next door to us, its about the same. Its maddd!!!

Bets are though, in January/Feb, loads of big names are going out of business. I'd actually bet money on things like that.

[today]

I'm not too sure, some figures i've seen for Republic are bloody +target alot..

& Next are doing extremely well at the minute also. Only one i worry about is TOPMAN ha.

[H0BJ0B]

There is no such thing as a sale. It's just a word to get you to shop there :D.

If that's the case, what is the term they use to describe it when they reduce prices on their products? :rolleyes:

[Mathew]

Almost every shop has a sale on here in Florida right now.
Surprisingly, Disney are actually selling some things off. 50% off all Christmas items, mugs and ornaments. 40% off all t-shirts and hats.

Converse have a sale on too. 3 shirts for $25, but that's been going on for a while now.

Technically, he's right.. All shops have items on sale... So you could go to sainsburys and find a bag of sugar and say "oh look, it's on sale"...

G-Star's don't have the same effect when they're old, reduced ones.
