Jedward kick-start Stephen’s Day sales bonanza

X FACTOR stars Jedward faced around 1,500 screaming teenagers when they turned up to kick off Arnotts’ post-Christmas sale.

The country’s oldest department store was the first to announce St Stephen’s day sales and breaking the tradition of staying closed on the day really paid off.

The store’s general manager, Leesa Kavanagh, said they enjoyed their busiest sales day of the year.
