Default Debenhams to Slash Prices after Dire Xmas sales

http://news.sky.com/story/1188828/de...oor-xmas-sales

[Debenhams has announced it will be
slashing prices after issuing a profits
warning following poor Christmas sales.
Shares in Britain's second-largest
department store plunged by as much
as 13% on Tuesday after it disclosed
profits nearly £30m lower than last year.
In a statement released by
Debenhams management,
they say that they now "expect the need
for additional markdown
to clear stock in January and February".]



Debenhams says high street decline and bad weather hit sales



What will they call it
Mega Sale?


Will they Close "some" stores down?

No you are not Marc and why do you need an iPad Jack?


Come to think of it, why does anyone need an iPad? I love how apple have made a product that holds no purpose and made people feel as if it is a Godsend and a must have item.
