Considering the majority of us are stuck in some sort of winter wonderland scene reminiscent of Narnia we can't get to the shops to do our christmas shopping. Because of this retailers are being hit where it hurt, I work in a shop and the last 2 days we haven't even taken half of our target so what are retailers doing to drive sales? Offer promotions on their websites! So I've collated a few of the best offers and am going to share them with you.
