Pitt St Mall - Boxing Day start to retail sales (though most things seem to have been "on sale" for months!). It is as if, having missed one day of retail opportunity, a consumerist frenzy broke out.
Never before, and never again!

Merry Christmas Sally! It looks crazy there.
ReplyDeleteFrantic and chaotic.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I stay at home on Boxing day!
Dog eats dog out there!
They say that the sales were being mainly fuelled by "Gen Y" - 20-30 year olds, and that was certainly my observation as I wascarried along in the crowd!
ReplyDeleteWhen we had a beach house, we always waited for the Boxing Day sales to buy stuff - towels, glasswear, china, cutlery, sheets. The things didn't have to be glamorous; just cheap and plentiful :)
ReplyDeleteHappy new year!
All Best Wishes into the New Year 2011!
