SINGAPORE: Christmas may be over but cash registers are still ringing in the dollars.

Bargain hunters were out in full force on Saturday as the annual post-Christmas sales got underway. And with some stores slashing prices by almost 50 per cent, it is no wonder even tourists have their eyes on the best buys.

On the day after Christmas, crowds streamed into Orchard Road and some Singaporeans said they are planning to take full advantage of the post-Christmas sales. Even the rain was not enough to dampen their enthusiasm.

A quick check along the Orchard Road shopping belt revealed many shops offering discounts - with products like shoes, books and toiletries going for up to 50 per cent off their regular prices.

And the bargains, coupled with the festive atmosphere, are proving irresistible to tourists as well.

Some shoppers said they are making a beeline for the luxury high-end brands and household items, while others are just waiting it out to see if the New Year will bring with it further reductions.

圣诞节后第一天（26日），各大商场继续疯狂大减价。

国人逛街购物逛累了！

圣诞节后第一天（26日），各大购物商场进行疯狂大减价，却激不起购买热潮。

一名21岁的在籍大学生区小姐说，今年圣诞节期间的促销很早就开始了，她已经没有兴趣再买东西了。

本地的主要大百货公司，在圣诞节过后，把折扣进一步提高，由原本的20％，提高到70％的折扣。

《海峡时报》报道，今年年底的大促销，提早开战，例如高岛屋、诗家董就提早展开年底大促销，希望可以在亚太经济合作组织峰会期间，做到各国代表的生意。

其他的知名品牌，如Topshop、Gap、Guess也在今年底展开促销活动。

昨天，诗家董百货公司的人潮，和平时周末的大致一样。

一名消费者珍妮说，今年各大商场的人潮没有那么多，可能是长周假，有些国人出国旅游去了。

天公不做美，昨天下午一连下了大约3小时的阵雨，也使得一些消费者打销了出外消费的兴致。

此外，一些人说，ERP闸门照样运作，或多或少影响了商场的生意。

一些在Ion Orchard的商店业者说，昨天的生意，和圣诞节之前大致一样。

在义安城，购物者戴安妮说，由于要购买礼物给亲友，她对圣诞节前的大促销活动，比较有兴趣。
