Got enough stuff yet?

Whoever said "Life isn't a race to see who can get the most stuff" obviously hadn't seen people falling over each other to get back into the shops on Boxing Day.

The homes of most folk I know already resemble a small department store by the time Christmas is over. Surely there can't be anything left that anyone needs? 

Not that shopping behaviour has anything to do with need, of course. Many people shop for a whole host of psychological, emotional and social reasons, as we talk about in SHECONOMICS.

If you're back in the shops next week, SHECONOMICS is coming out in just 9 DAYS. 

If not, there's always the lovely internet. You can get the book cheaper if you pre-order from Waterstone's.
