Preparing for a quiet day

If tomorrow is like other AFL Grand Final days it will be busy until lunchtime and then dead.   While on most Saturdays trade is constant, on Grand Final Saturday the day is 85% over by lunchtime.  We have tried the day with the game on a big TV in-store.  We have also tried promotions to draw people in.  We have found we are better off using the quiet time to get work done.  With both teams from Melbourne we are sure to feel the impact more this year.

    Hi Mark, we’re wondering if you know any companies which supply plain coloured flags. We have alot of football fans who have asked for them, and GNS don’t seem to have any.
