I know that now sales are not starting anymore in January. I remember waiting eagerly the 2nd of January and taking the bus to the West End for the winter sales. And people were sleeping outside Harrods in order to get inside first thing in the morning and snatch some good bargains. Now sales are around before Christmas but still the AW collections are at full price. Who received money and gift vouchers for Christmas can enjoy a bit of shopping. At sales you buy those items that will last for a while but that you couldn't afford before at full price. I have picked some of them.
