Every year at the end of November, our wallet is mercilessly attacked by marketing offers and exorbitant discounts. Black Friday – the day of extraordinary discounts – in 2020 falls on November 27.
What does Black Friday bring to consumers, what to look out for and whether it is possible to make really profitable purchases?
Despite the pandemic, the tradition of buying goods on “Black Friday” will continue in 2020. For several weeks now, stores around the world have been vying to buy goods at the best prices.
The peculiarity of this year’s sale is that it will largely move online. For many retailers there are quarantine restrictions, and for shoppers shopping is an additional risk of getting sick.
On the eve of the biggest holiday for sellers and their customers, EP traditionally talks about how, what and where you can buy at a discount.
The evolution of Black Friday
According to one version, the name “Black Friday” arose due to traffic jams. During Thanksgiving (the last Thursday in November), American stores made huge discounts.
Everyone who hurried to buy goods found themselves on the street, creating many kilometers of traffic jams.
The second version is related to the peculiarities of accounting. The fact is that half a century ago, companies reported losses in red and profits in black. During the holiday season (before Thanksgiving), people spent a lot of money on gifts, sales increased, and therefore all records were black.
Which version is true, now no one will say. One thing is for sure: none of them reflects what will happen on Black Friday 2020.
