Every year the size of the queues of people waiting for the Stephen’s Day sales shocks us.
We’re all for getting a great bargain but the thoughts of leaving your warm cosy bed and trekking into town to wait on Grafton Street at 6am? No way. The only thing we’ll be queuing for is more turkey thanks very much.
This morning outside Brown Thomas looked as manic as usual…

Each to their own, sure. No sale will ever take the place of mince pies in bed for brekkie though.
