What about recycling?
What about hecycling? Or shecycling?
Or simply nipping down the pub/cafe/bistro on a* bike when it's a bit cold but not pissing down, not a formal occasion or windy or a race or you're intending to eat a soft-boiled egg or maybe a hard-boiled egg?*Rat/Functional/Porn/Anti/HHS/Cross/MTB/Gravel/DH/Mixte/Tandem/Audax/BMX/Touring/SSCX

Think it started with the supermarkets following Wal-Mart's acquisition of ASDA. They started doing it, so the others followed. This spilled over to most other areas of retail
Anecdotally, the Jordan brand bring out a new pair of trainers every Black Friday, and this has had the effect of pushing trainer retailers like Size/Offspring into the fore with it all
Tl;dr = because neoliberalism

Sales timed now work quite well (for retailers) as they get a chance well ahead of the rush to make their product the gift, smooth demand and get an idea of how their christmas is going to go.
I hate Sales. It means we all invite marketing into our lives, filtering it to find bargains rather than paying what we feel things are worth and moving on.

GT shoes for £210 not a bad deal, given the factors retail for £240 most other places.

It's Thursday! Isn't anything sacred anymore, even cynical retail ploys to sell the shiz that isn't selling normally?

Transfer jacket is officially not a biking jacket. Motorbike maybe but wouldn't catch mecycling in that.
