This is THE bauble of Christmas 2018 – will it be dressing your tree?
Sainsbury's predicts all we will want for Christmas is this Pug bauble
It’s set to be the year of the dog – as far as Sainsbury’s Christmas decorations are concerned. The supermarket is heralding the pug as the icon of this year’s must-have tree decorations.
“As a nation of animal-lovers perhaps it’s not surprising that the pug has sparked our customers’ imaginations!’ explains Vicky Wright, Buying Manager for Seasonal for Sainsbury’s Home. ‘Over the past few years we’ve seen a notable shift in preferences for more unexpected and quirky Christmas decorations! This and this year dogs have come out on top’.
