Nov 20 2020

November has been a great year for re-sale, from kicks to consoles, people can’t get enough of the sales business and Sony’s PS5 has become a hot commodity for these types of sales.

Selling out at most local outlets, the PlayStation 5 has become a sought out piece of tech and locals from Ħamrun look to capitalise on this demand, advertising a PS5 ’in hand’ for a whopping €1,000.

Most outlets around Malta have promised another supply of PlayStations very soon, but for those who can’t wait.. Ħamrun is the place to go to.

“È vietato parlare di Coronavirus.”

A bar in Rome has stuck handwritten posters right above their countertops which forbid any and all talk having to do with COVID-19.

This includes anything from lockdown, cases, epidemiology, virology or anything in between, as the bar manager stated that the management chose to lighten the atmosphere.
