Shop Sells Furniture Packages for Divorced Men
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - A Belgian furniture shop is offering special packages for divorced men who hate shopping in a country where half of all marriages end in a divorce after five years.
The packages, sold at 2,290 euros ($2,729) a piece, include a living room, a complete bedroom, a dining room and a television set, including a DVD player.
"I always tell them...'you have to put an end to this part of your life and start a new one'," Paul Dierckx, the owner of the shop, who is twice divorced, told Reuters Television.
The shop, he said, sells at least ten kits a week.
