But the economy has got greedy in latter years and more and more retail shops are now opened. Pure greed if you ask me. The shops all have Boxing Day sales and people go nuts over this. You won't catch me nesr shops until the New Year lol. I worked in retail and use to work it you use to get double wages which was great for me.it kinda resembles America's Black Friday sale as it's mostly just one day you can physically go into shops as they are closed Christmas Day.

My dad's family is Canadian and they have boxing day, too. I was told it was a day to "box up" old nelongings you are getting rid of after you got the new stuff for Christmas.
