I needed to check to find out what boxing day is, we just call it the second day of Christmas.
John Yeah, just doesn't make sense nowadays, to be honest. Especially for an iPhone because you can easily pre-order one online and get it delivered on the release day.
John Same here. I have exactly the same thought process when Apple release a new product and people sit in a queue outside an Apple Store all night, I'd just wait for a couple of days and wander in and get one without the hassle.
This is nutso!
Girl-from-Mars This is nutso!
It so is!
Why is it called boxing day, do people fight each other about the presents they got?

I guessed it was because it's the day you have to get rid of the empty boxes, but it is probably not that at all.
😁 Nowadays! It is coming from the history… basically packing boxes for the servants to bring home (GB)
No idea but if you ever want to see an amateur boxing fight, make sure to wake up early and visit a store with massive savings on Boxing Day. You'll have ringside seats to some lovely fights.

Oh, sadly I do not have any servants, so I can't take part 🙁
You can always just pick a family member and get them to carry all your boxes. Still celebrating the day without the guilt of owning a slave 😅
Ash You can always just pick a family member and get them to carry all your boxes.
PRO TIP: Probably best not to pick a small child unless you have few boxes and they don't contain anything breakable.
