Tory Brexit DOOM™: DFS

[AtW]

"Sofa retailer DFS is nursing a sharp fall in profits amid a "very challenging market" as shoppers have become unwilling to splash out on new sofas and a weaker pound has pushed up costs."

My Xmas 2025 delivery is in danger!!!

Nice one Brexit. There go AtW's plans for getting laid.

They could always try having a sale, and advertising the fact.

Or you could suggest that:

People tend to buy sofas when they move home or renovate. If they are doing neither then the need to change a sofa will be put off until its really needed. Lets not forget that there are some better alternatives around to DFS (always been a bit tulip IMO) so maybe customers are waking up to the fact that tulip sofa on faked 0% credit is less attractive than a better one from Multiyork or Sofas.com....

Bob,

this is the point isn't it, MuitiYork is for people moving or renovating

DFS is for the Jeremy Kyle brigade

DFS is the barometer of the Jeremy Kyle brigade who's consumer credit powers the economy

if this band of never never warriors start to tighten their belts

pop goes the weasel

Milan.
