Thank God it's EOFY


Yes we all love Tax time (well some do if ya get a refund or if you owe the tax man money, maybe it's sad face time) and we all love the sales, the promotions and the fun of saying EOFY!

Yes June 30 it's tomorrow and I am just tickle pink that, that means one month of Winter down, 2 to go. Why the hell does one have zero to minus 5 percentage energy to do anything of good to ones body in Winter and why oh why is it so God damn windy this weekend.

I used to be Winters #1 fan, that changed with hitting my (not so) dirty thirties. I have lost the will to go for a morning run, I dread boot camp mornings and the thought of leaving the bed on the weekend is nothing short of a major task.

Enough complaining about the weather, the season and please oh please can I have a tax refund this year. One like last year would do just fine please.

I do however dwelling on this EOFY love the random excuse for yet another reason to roll out those tired old sale signs in the retail world. Can we just look at some of the sales around dates that now commonly roll out:

New Years Sale
Australia Day Sale
Back to School Sale
Valentines Day Sale
End of Summer Sale
Autumn Sale
Easter Sale
Anzac Day Sale
Back to School Sale x2
End of Autumn Sale
End of Financial Year Sale
Mid Year Clearance
End of Winter Sale
Spring Sale
October Long Weekend Sale
Halloween Sale
Summer Sale
Back to School Sale x3
Pre Christmas Sale
Boxing Day Sale
End of Year Sale

Is that enough sales to pack into one year?

Australian's love a sale? It's a shame you can't make the punter pay full price for anything anymore.

So folks, happy EOFY, enjoy the last day of the 2013/2014 Financial Year.
