I can't make up my mind whether this is hilariously funny or depressingly sad...

From The Wrexham Leader:

THERE was pandemonium at a discount shop when tempers flared over a half price sale.

Police were called to the 99p Store on Regent Street, Wrexham, when crowds of furious shoppers refused to leave after prices on sale items were put back up to 99p...

Shopper Sharon Roberts, from Rhosnesni, said: "I was in there for nearly two hours queuing to get to the till. Then the manager took the posters down from the window.

"People were absolutely furious and that's why the police were called. Tempers were flaring and people were shouting. The shop finally said people could have items on a buy one get one free."

Its sad that the police turned up; they should have just let them get on with it,like they usually do.
