When do the post-Christmas sales start?

Many retailers have once more chosen to open their doors on St. Stephens Day. TheJournal.ie has a roundup of dates and times of the post-Christmas sales.

SHOPPING ON BOXING Day in the UK is heading in the direction of Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) in the US.

Frenzied crowds queuing overnight for deals are now common sights across London city.

And wiith the influx of British retailers to Ireland, opening on St. Stephen’s Day is becoming a popular option with stores here. After three successful years of experimenting with the early opening hours, even more shopping centres and retailers are welcoming customers on 26 December, enticing them with slashed prices and once-off deals.
