Your right oldgrump, but you know, it *might* just be an opportunity.
For too long our High Streets have been harbouring too many charity shops, estate agents and pound stores. Perhaps if we all appreciated that rrp means people in employment, in shops, meaning lower taxes through benefits, and more of our money “moving around”, then the would might just become a better place.
What better for xmas than browsing round a store and finding that “perfect gift” you’d never have thought of, rather than just logging onto a website and ordering something throughly unoriginal.
And I will be doing so this xmas. I shan’t even be using my visa or mastercard, I will be going in to my bank and demanding cash, and if they ask why, pointing out why.
See, theres a whole world of opportunity to be a grumpy old man here… moan to fellow shoppers, bank staff, shop assistants, whilst pointing out what you are doing for them! seize the day!
