Wear your Sunglasses in Aberdare for the Sales
December 27, 2006 « Previous Page — Next Page »
Remember to wear your Sunglasses in Aberdare this week for the Christmas Sales. There are bright red ’sale’ signs everywhere.
The garish signs enticing people to spend even more money adorn nearly every shop window in our humble little town in the Welsh Valleys.
The fifty per cent Boxing Day Sales started on Christmas Eve in Aberdare.
Aberdare is an eccentric town and so it’s no surprise to see that the Pound Shop in Canon Street are having a sale making many items… fifty pence. If they go any lower, they’ll be paying people to buy from them.
Let’s enjoy One last Christmas Carol for the year, to the tune of Jingle All The Way :
Chorus
Profits here, profits there, profits everywhere
Christmas time is funny we smell money in the air
Advertise, glamorize, fool you with a flair.
Let’s make sure that Christmas is a businesslike affair.
You’re eating up our lies and dashing to the stores
Then all our prices rise and how the money pours
If we don’t keep you drugged and watching your TV
You might see the hypocrisy then where would business be?
Chorus
We’ll tell you how to think and tell you what to try
What to eat and drink and how to live and die
And if our plan succeeds, when Christmas-time is nigh
Instead of seeking love and peace you’ll hunt for gifts to buy
Chorus
