The day after Christmas where all the stores have sales. Boxing Day is a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Hong Kong and countries in the Commonwealth of Nations with a mainly Christian population. In South Africa, this public holiday is now known as the Day of Goodwill. It is based on the tradition of giving gifts to the less fortunate members of society. Contemporary Boxing Day in many countries is now a "shopping holiday" associated with after-Christmas sales.
"Now that I am finished shopping for all my freinds at Christmas I am going to go boxing day shopping for myself!"

It is the one day over the Christmas holidays where you are entitled to uninterrupted X-Box entertainment without the apprehension of having to switch it off.
This remarkable day occurs either on Boxing Day or on some other agreed day with your spouse.
Whilst it is lovely spending time with family, this is an effective pragmatic settlement that helps to soften the unpleasant experience of unwillingly enduring dreary Christmas TV, imposed through common family demand.

"I hear you are not spending Christmas at home this year, is there any chance you could jump online for some Special Ops?"
"No, but I do have an X-Boxing day agreement. Unfortunately I am ill-fated to be in an unfamiliar habitat during Christmas, but Knowing X-Boxing day is nearing whilst I respectfully give my support to another’s customary routine, is especially reassuring."
