Friday 10/01/2014 Letter to the Editor – The Taranaki Daily News Newspaper
I really hate this time of year. No not the weather, the sales. When I read that, if I buy something I do not need, I can have something I do not want half price, I cringe; and again when when confronted with the oxymoron “thousands of savings in store” How is it possible to save money by spending it? Also the heading 60% off” makes me wonder if the store is selling at a bankrupting loss, or whether it is a frank admission that the original price was very exorbitant. I know I do not need to read these things but, alas, I also know my beloved wife will, and she is a world-champion shopaholic.
