Sales fever to kick in
The shopping frenzy is expected to continue today as stores across the country open their doors for the traditional sales.
It is anticipated that consumers will start dumping the millions of pounds of so-called 'mattress money' they have at home in the last days of the punt's existence.
Some store owners are predicting a rise of 14% on last year's sales figures.
Sales in most major stores will start today. Arnotts' sale will start tomorrow.
