It's another season of the famous black Friday where we experience massive discount by shopping online and sometimes if you are not careful you end up exceeding your budget because you get them at a cheaper price and would not want to kiss the opportunity. This shopping deal with good discounts that takes place every year around November and December, it is also believed that
It starts right after Thanksgiving Day in the United States. The major feature of black Friday deals is its reduced prices and discounts, promotions of goods and services, and extended store hours,free delivery and so on.
In Nigeria presently, the black Friday deals have started and you can shop for discounted prices on various platforms just make sure they are legit. Some of them are Jumia, konga, jiji and so on. Currently there are slashed prices in the sales of mobile phones, refrigerator, standing fan, television, laptop, clothes, skincare and so on. The sale is massive because sometimes people wait till this period to buy stuff because of the reduction in price and the fact that they can get a fair deal for personal use or for business purposes.
I would be utilizing this opportunity shopping for some personal items like skincare products because the price slash is so tempting. One of the challenge that black Friday poise to people is that it brings about Impulse Buying, which has to do with buying things you did not account for or budget. The temptation of the price slash makes people to engage in spontaneous purchase of goods or services most of which might not be important at the end.
Sometimes, some e-commerce platforms play a smart one on their customers. At time it would see as if they are deflating the price but in actual sense, the price was hiked during the normal sales, then when the black Friday deals start, the reduce their outrageous process and claim they are giving us a good deal. There are scams associated with the black Friday deals, some sites are fake online store that just want to steal people's money and not deliver the goods bought. You could also be a victim of buying g fake products all in the name of cheap prices on black Friday.
Again, to avoid stories, it is better to make research and find out genuine online stores. It is good to Check for correct website URL, some discounts are too good to be true, check company reviews and make secured payments that can be accounted for. Shopping online is one that has come to stay in this 21st century and it helps to reduce cost one way or another, so utilize it if you can.
