Widow - Wid.ow; a woman often left alone because her husband devotes his free time to a hobby or sport (used in combination), i.e. World Cup Widow, June 11th - July 11th 2010!
Savoo.co.uk is urging World Cup
Widows not to despair at the thought of a whole month filled with beer,
testosterone and 'strategic chats', and instead use the opportunity (and
the fella's distraction) to pamper themselves.
Click 'Read More' for our recommendations!
With research showing that 61% of
Brits are planning to watch the majority of World Cup games at home, this
doesn't pose much fun for the 28% of people who have no interest at all in
watching the 'beautiful game'.
But instead of stumbling over empty
beer cans and hiding in the wardrobe to avoid those footie-style man hugs, Savoo.co.uk is encouraging World
Cup Widows to treat themselves to some self-indulgence too. With nearly two
thirds of Brits expected to increase their leisure spending as a consequence of
the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and that figure rising to almost four in five hardcore
football fans, why shouldn't the World Cup Widows have a little fun time too?
Despite a third (31%) of Brits saying they will
probably buy alcoholic drinks specifically for entertaining during World Cup, Savoo.co.uk wants to show World
Cup Widows that there are more exciting luxuries to spend their hard earned
money on – and all at a fantastic discount

I think the true widows come into effect after England's been knocked out...up til then we love it as much as the men, I just don't get how you fellas continue to enjoy it when there's no-one left in worth cheering for! That's when I'll be reaching for a whole host of Savoo vouchers! Until then, at least praying the boys will beat the Americans on Saturday!

OMG I think I was driven to drink after such a dismal opening performance by England. I'm not sure that I won't start shopping out of despair at the result or should OI do the spa suggestions and just try to get it out of my mind.............. please, we have to beat Algiers on Friday???!!!

Thanks so much for these great deal suggestions. Call me unpatriotic, but I'd much rather be shopping than being subjected to yet another boring game of football!
