Early morning for eager shoppers as St Stephen's Day sales begin

Did you queue up early this morning? These people did…

IT WAS ONLY Christmas Day yesterday, but some people aren’t taking advantage of time off to relax at home.

Instead, they have been queueing up from the early hours in order to grab some bargains in the stores.

Our readers spotted some big queues around the country today – and there were similar scenes captured in stores abroad.

With retail outlets like Next opening as early as 6am, the most eager shoppers were out before the crack of dawn to indulge in some retail therapy.

Were you out early to hit the sales today?
