In 2009, Salvation Army Trading Company's Dumbarton Road shop in Glasgow celebrated after making an amazing £13,000 in just two hours at its Christmas shopping evening held on Thursday, November 19th.
Hundreds of shoppers queued in the pouring rain to get the opportunity to shop in the bargain packed store.
In 2008 the shop, which specialises in furniture but also has a selection of clothing and bric-a-brac, made £10,000 during its Christmas shopping evening but the tills rang even louder last year, despite the tough economic conditions.
Shop manager Denise Waterson says: "Despite the atrocious weather we attracted hundreds of shoppers and the event was a real hit. It was exhausting but exhilarating! People always love a bargain, especially when times are tough and this year has proved that more than ever."
