The Gardiner offers were worth it though! Not grumbling at free poles.

Had a great "black Friday", granted i had to que half the night at Asda but got a 40" plasma tv for an absolute steal, marked down by 80 % !
ok so the volume control on the remote doesn't work but at that price I couldn't turn it down.

odd thing is, it comes from slave days. They don't complain YET because they love a bargain. Stuff waiting hours for  a poope tv. No Panasonics on sale

I think you'll find that is a myth.

Friday for me is all shop windows and I can't say the town centre in Brighton was any different to any other Friday during the year apart from the peek summer period and just before Christmas.

In fact, the car traffic was less than usual. It made a nice change to actually be able to park easily in some places.

That's rubbish!
I saw a white woman being trampled and crushed on the news yesterday morning.
So it's clearly a multicultural event.  ;D
