That right - three celebrations. No wonder they call it the festive season!
Once upon a time the best sales were stocktake sales, and there were smaller mid-year sales as well. Stocktake as a close-the-store and physically count every thing system has been replaced by ongoing inventory management, but the sales remain. I'm not sure when we stopped calling them stocktake sales though. The importation of Black Friday sales is quite recent, and with no stocktake involved the sales have really just spread out and become almost business as usual.
