Is It Really A Deal ?
Do you get taken in by these Black Friday 'deals '
I certainly don't .
If i want a product and it is advertised at a price which i think is a good price , then that's what will persuade me to buy , not necessarily because it has a sticker saying for eg 'Black Friday deals - save 50 %' - or similar .
//Shoppers should be wary of Black Friday deals which are often not as good as they seem, says consumer group Which?
More than half of last year's Black Friday deals were cheaper or the same price at other times of year, according to the consumer group.//
//"It's easy to get swept along by the hype and excitement on the day, so we recommend doing some preparation and research to help make sure you really are getting a good deal," said Alex Neill, the group's managing director of home products and services.//

It reminds me of the tactics that retailers use normally in sales .
They have a product on sale at a out of town , bit remote location for say £100 for the required legal period of time - then reduce it to £ 50 throughout their other stores , under the guise of a 'sale '

What you shouldn’t do, is shop ‘the other way around’. That’s where you wait until you see the Black Friday deals and decide what you want from them. This is ‘bad shopping’, because psychologically, you’re looking for a good deal, rather than a good product.
