We were thinking about Christmas this weekend - it's hard not to when the supermarket is piled high with choccies and booze and crackers etc etc

But do we need it all?

Nope.

People will load up trolleys and spend more than they can afford, then complain about the expense and the waste and the amount of turkey they've still got to eat.

Why the hell do we do it?

Greed - it's just pure unadulterated greed
