SAVVY shoppers queued from 2am to bag the best deals at Bluewater on Boxing Day.

By 6am there were already 4000 shoppers waiting to get into the Next store.

Robert Goodman, Bluewater's General Manager, said: "The sales have started strongly at Bluewater and we anticipate another busy day. "John Lewis began its sale in-store at 8am and we are open until 10pm this evening, providing guests with more time to plan and to make the most of the day. "In amongst the shopping, however, there will be a lot of spending time with friends and family, with our restaurants performing just as strongly as the retailers. "Our Christmas entertainment will also be busy, with guests visiting the ice rink, snow slide, and Charlie and Lola’s Best Bestest Play."
