Sales! Sales! Everywhere!
Saturday, January 17th, 2009Unlike a lot of the giant high street stores — who have massive warehouses crammed with old stock they want to shift (and, admittedly, some hefty overheads) — we here at Larkin & Catcher are not going down the MEGA SALE/SALE TO END ALL SALES/EVERYTHING MUST GO! route. That ‘route’ is the road to disaster for the customer and retailer alike, as far as we’re concerned. Eventually, yet more stores will close, more people will lose their jobs, choice and variety will be lost and all that will be available to buy (for most people — apart from the super rich) will be a load of generic tat. So, we’re not jumping on the MASSIVE SALE bandwagon.
We’ve got an Archive section with all items at 60% off and there’s also a Special on until the end of January, with some decent discounts off a variety of this years items. These are genuine items from our stock and not items bought in for the purpose of putting it On Sale.
There, it had to be said. We feel so much better now.
