Have they never heard of shopping online? Most days I walk to work and on the way I go to ASDA to buy my lunch! Today aaaarrrrgggghhhh! Bl33din queue! The store was full and there was a queue outside, I have no lunch!, Dam I'll have to go down the pub!

Yes sorry retro. It's a bit early for such sophistication !!! :-)

[retrocop]

Me?? sophistication!! I wouldn't know how to spell it :-)

Let's not forget 'please buy more stuff Tuesday'. It's being mooted for the week after next if sales on black Friday and cyber Monday are disappointing.

the woman in black who appears in photos on every newspaper site (and the BBC news) has got a lovely bottom.

Earlier in the year was there a 'Buy not a single thing day' or am I imagining that?

[sandyRoe]

It's tomorrow, apparently. And a very good idea, too.

I think there was sandy. It was a big success as nobody turned up.

Bargains, or just shops shifting the cr*p they are stuck with?

No Lidl round here, not for a few miles anyway. Everywhere has a 'scumbag acres' so no doubt there is a Lidll in most towns by now.

[ludwig]

'shifting the cr*p we're stuck with Thursday' isn't until the new year youngmaf.

The Boots prescription queue was right down the aisle too. Trouble is the local pubs don't hold supplies of the right drug.

I bet Black Friday in Ferguson was a bit of a non event - they're all good for flat screen TVs at the moment.

[retrocop]

That was a black week until the National Guard spoilt it for them.

I am just wondering how some have not picked up on "Black Friday" is it racist?

[Cloverjo]

I went to a branch of Asda I don't usually go to today, and wondered why it was so horribly busy. Now I know.

[B00]

nothing racist at all about it TWR! For heavens sake, it refers to "being in the black" a banking term!

Why does EVERYTHING have to have a racist slant for some people?

[mikey4444]

Black Friday as nothing whatsoever to do with race ! I have already posted this link :::

Hmmm. I never thought of York as lower class and deprived. still, I must be wrong because there are several Lidls

[jourdain2]

There's one in Malton as well, FrogNog - I think most people who live there think it's a somewhat decent area!

[TWR]

What I am saying BOO, not implying as you might think, the way things are it's a wonder no-0ne has.

[Baldric]

FGS, there is nothing Racist about it!
