Here's the best excuse for a shopping spree we've had in ages:

A traditional shopping day has begun at McElhinneys of Ballybofey, bringing 12 hours of seasonal offers to the store and plenty of treats for shoppers too.

Between 10am and 10pm today (Tuesday) the department store will have massive discounts, fabulous gift ideas, amazing prizes and giveaways, seasonal must-have fashion and lots of festive cheer.

Customers will be in with a chance to WIN a €1000 Gift Voucher instore only, so if you have the evening free then call in and complete your Christmas shopping list – it could bag you an extra special treat!
