Black Friday
Black Friday... It's Black Friday in Spain, Black Friday everywhere! Prepare your wallets and charge your credit cards! Oh yes!!!
The last Friday of November , the most anticipated Friday before Christmas!!
This is the craziest month for my hubby, it is our anniversary, our daughter's birthday, followed by my birthday. And then it's Christmas time that ends with New year, which means #party #champagne #food #family and #friends over.
During the holidays, people tend to spend more money on presents and simply enjoying more of the social life, that can cost money too.
So if there are opportunities to spend less, like Black Friday, you just take it. And yes , we are no different, we want and we search for "family price".
There is something about seeing the "% OFF" sign that can be seen everywhere, it builds some hope and expectation of finding a nice and meaningful gift to someone or to yourself. In my opinion, companies use Black Friday as a great way to attract attention and even if they put big knock off their prices, they are making a big profit on their sales, that usually multiplies.
It's very popular in the USA, but with new rules of marketing, everybody can join in.. so why not?
Everything you need to know. Many big brands in Spain are doing it. And almost of then doing on internet as well, for those who dont have time to go shopping. Many of the companies start the Black Friday by midnight on the internet, proven to be a great marketing way of getting people spending right at the first hours of the day.
Cyber Monday is another event of sales of American origin in which the discounts to buy online take center stage. This was the case last year with big chains such as El Corte Inglés, Amazon, Media Markt or Fnac. You will never view Mondays like a bad thing anymore, especially the last Monday of November :)
Shopping from the couch of your home is comfortable and easy, with policies that you can return the items or exchange them for other one likes. Still, if we buy in the store it gives us a little bit more confidence by having chance of trying out the article, especially if it's clothing. Nothing beats the old fashioned store visit and thourough search for the right article
You should plan your purchases and avoid impulsive decisions. Pay attention to the payment and the return conditions. Especially on the internet, it can be tricky. In this sense, it is always advisable to make sure that the cost indicated in the product includes VAT, since many times it does not apply. On the other hand, if you buy online you must take into account the shipping costs.
