January Sales

After a lovely Christmas at home with friends and family we finally decided to hit the January sales on Saturday. We don't normally make a big thing of the January Sales but this year the shops have been offering some really fantastic price reductions so it was difficult not to get caught up in the sales frenzy.

We have found that there were some great deals both on the high street and on the internet so we have managed to pick up some gifts for birthdays and so on ahead of time and saved ourselves quite a bit of cash I think.
Although all the news is still concentratiing on doom and gloom I generally am not finding that ordinary people are quite so pessimistic. Maybe everyone is just keeping a smile on their face and trying not to worry. Anyway here is to a happy and prosperous New Year.
