One of many clips seen today on UK news .
I am not a shopper ,so ladies would you shop in such chaotic scenes?
We must live in some gullible society ,firstly believing retailers wow what deals lets shop now.
And to scrum down ,rip goods from ladies and children's arms beggars belief in what level of greed we have stooped to .
So would NC ever have such shopping frenzies?

Not sure that there is anything on sale here worth fighting over-all consumer goods are taxed like hell.

Just watched the video, show's how greed has overtaken people, there was no thought for anything or anyone but to get that bargain, sorry shear mindlessness.
The store was no better placing them so close to the main entrance
I have to pass a big Currys superstore and on my way to work, at 6.30 this morning the car park was full and people we still trying g to get parked, so much traffic they were on parking the on kerbside, god know what it would have been like in normal rush hour my guess is traffic gridlock

As all these silly things it's American .
Only been in UK around 2 or 3 years. Really this year is first serious pumping up from retailers .
I think it's the similar thing as boxing days sales year ago from USA ,thanksgiving sales .
The video only shows one of 20 ugly scenes yesterday as chav Britain takes over.

Its good to see that the World Recession for these poor underweight people has come to an end at last! If it reaches here it will be shotguns in the shops.

According to BBC news this morning, today is going to be Black Monday in UK as well as Friday. As said before its yet another American "import" which started as being the big shopping day the day after Thanksgiving.

Actually, it's Cyber Monday, so no fighting in the shops, just laptops and mobiles flying around!
