Black Friday. An American celebration of consumerism the day after they celebrate Thanksgiving - but I'm not even going to get started on that one.
For some reason, we look at America as the 'big brother' to us Brits. Whatever they do, we try to copy it so that they'll think we're cool. Hey, America! We've started Black Friday, too! Can we hang out soon?!

The thing is, us Brits aren't really that arsed. Especially when supermarket giants give us deals like a fiver off a TV. I'd rather stay nice and toasty in bed and not freeze my nips off while standing in an industrial estate waiting for Susan to open the doors to ASDA.
These images show just how 'not assed' we are. And they're absolutely beautiful.

You can keep your cheap headphones, Susan.
