[00:00.19]For shopaholics,
[00:01.86]the post Christmas period means only one thing sales!
[00:07.26]Across the country, prices are slashed on clothing,
[00:10.97]electronics, home furnishings and more.
[00:14.36]But London is the place for serious shopping,
[00:17.8]and you can certainly pick up some amazing bargains.
[00:21.94]The sales start on Boxing Day-26th December,
[00:26.17]and continue for the month of January.
[00:29.38]But the keenest bargain hunters get there early to be first
[00:34.02]through the doors.
[00:36.27]In Oxford Street, queues formed outside shops ahead of
[00:40.62]pre dawn openings for the start of their sales.
[00:44.41]At Brent Cross in north London, more than 1,000 people
[00:48.41]were queuing at 3:30 a.m.
[00:50.78]for the" next" clothing store's sale which began at 4 a.m.
[00:56.16]Some people even camped outside the shops to be first in the
[01:00.36]line.
[01:02.2]Some people are taking their friends shopping with them
[01:06.12]and buying their Christmas presents in the sales a practical
[01:10.67]but unromantic way of making sure you get the gift you really
[01:14.58]want.
[01:16.69]For a less exciting but less stressful shopping experience,
[01:20.89]online retailers are also getting in on the act with January
[01:25.75]sales of their own.
[01:28.42]The most organized of all are those who are already doing
[01:32.68]their present shoppping for next Christmas in the January
[01:37.22]sales!
