Hi everybody! This is Queen Jan the Foremost of the Shrubbery launching the second week in my reign with four more tempting links for you lot to ponder over. I hope you were not caught on the hop last week with my theme based on the switch to Greenwich Mean Time. I found last week's launch was stress-free, since I was not personally involved. This week might be an entire different experience!
It has been a busy week for me at work, now that we have got all the fireworks sold and the display cases put away for another year. I don't want to create a sense of alarm, but at present all the Christmas trimmings are coming out (to decorate the Shrubbery?).
We have lots of offers on the Christmas gifts to separate the customer from his/her money. For example, "Buy Three and pay for only Two" (get the cheapest free). At the weekend, the wine was on offer with a massive 25% off if you bought six bottles! Well, what is a girl to do with offers like that? I bought twelve bottles, that's what!
Lots of the ladies' clothing has been reduced too (in price, not in size!) I think this month's wage has been spent already on all the offers long before it reaches my bank account. I can resist everything except temptation!
