Black Friday 2023 promises to be exciting and profitable for Ukrainian shoppers. By following good advice, everyone can make a successful purchase.
Black Friday is a traditional American tradition, celebrated after Thanksgiving and marking the beginning of the Christmas season of discounts and sales. Over time, this phenomenon spread to many countries around the world, including Ukraine.
This year, Black Friday falls on November 24, but Ukrainian stores start sales earlier, and this year you can start “hunting” for discounts and sales from November 15-18 . This way, you can enjoy luxury until November 27-28.
It should be noted that nowadays, trading platforms and online stores offer significant discounts and promotions. It is important that discounts can be intended for a variety of products and services – from electronics and clothing to travel packages and restaurant services.
Offered for sale can be very useful if the goal is to buy necessary items or gifts before the Christmas holidays at a better price. However, it is important to be smart when shopping and not act impulsively, because you risk buying things that may be excessive or unnecessary.
To avoid mindless spending, you need to follow some rules:
-
before buying, make a list of what you really need;
-
when compiling a list, avoid including currently unnecessary seasonal items (for example, a swimsuit);
-
check the prices of goods before the sale (there are convenient online applications for this);
-
compare the initial price with the offer when selling – sometimes the initial price increases, and as a result the discount seems larger;
-
maintain personal financial discipline when buying – buy only what you planned;
-
never buy on credit – with funds that do not exist today;
-
Determine the exact budget you are willing to spend, and bring only cash (no credit cards).
