I found a non-bogan to chat to (a Canadian actually) and went in armed with my trolley and list. A bit of a mad dash at first but if you've previously identified where your items are in the store it's no sweat. My favourite part was having the tills all to mysrlf while the 99% of shoppers queued for hours for layby. And the fact that Christmas for the kids is mostly sorted in July! You are a brave woman though. Maybe you can show me how it's done if we make it over there.KMitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07332104406015733620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8057509926604303961.post-78269432307154274562010-11-29T09:41:10.317-07:002010-11-29T09:41:10.317-07:00I never.

I think it's crass, it takes advantage of the fact that times are tough, and it brings out the ugly in nearly everyone involved, particularly the stores themselves. I spend Thanksgiving weekend watching Christmas videos, playing games with my kids, decorating for Christmas, and eating leftovers. If I miss a sale or two, oh well. At least I still have all ten of my fingers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07532225334730948057noreply@blogger.com
