Joyeuses Fêtes Season’s Greetings

Four tips to help you cope with Boxing Day sales

May the holiday season bring you peace and joy to last the whole year through. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I nveterate bargain hunters adore Boxing Day sales. If you’re thinking about making themost of all those great discounts, be sure to read this little guide. 1. Do some window shopping first A few days before the Boxing Day sales begin, visit your favourite stores and list the items you’d like to buy at a discount. Of course, the store staff might have some privileged information about the upcoming sales. You could get some great tips if you ask a few questions.

2. Be well-prepared Be ready, because you’re bound to face endless lines and frenzied customers. Ask a friend to go along with you for company. Bring some water and snacks. Wear com- fortable clothes, andmake sure your phone battery is fully charged. 3. Avoid confrontations Every year, the media reports on the most aggressive incidents involving customers desperate to get at a discounted item. We’ve all seen the reels of angry customers threate­ ning or even pushing each other. Stay away

Que la nouvelle année vous apporte joie, paix, santé et prospérité. Joyeux Noël, bonne et heureuse année!

Three-for- one sales can be pretty compel- ling, after all. That said, try to resist the urge to purchase items you don’t really need.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
