Every year in November, the day after Thanksgiving holiday - on Friday, shopping lovers have their holiday - Black Friday. The Black Friday tradition has been going on since the 18th century, originally it was about exchanging presents before Christmas, but the idea of this event developed in the 20th century as a result of increased consumerism. The name was invented by the Philadelphia Police Department to describe the chaos on the roads and in front of most stores that day. Chaos, the consequences of which were, among others, numerous car accidents, acts of aggression and shoplifting.
On Black Friday, many stores are open extra hours, sometimes
around the clock, offering one-day bargains and discounts. In the United
States, this is often the most profitable day for salespeople throughout the
year; that day, over 100 million Americans have been shopping for many years.
On Black Friday you can buy something much cheaper than on regular days. Very
often, prices have a 70% reduction. Following the example of the USA, stores in
Western Europe also began to reduce the prices of their products on this day.
Since 2015, the event has also become very popular in
Poland. Unfortunately, Black Friday in Poland is different from that in the United
States. Price reductions are not so large and are usually around 20% -30%
sometimes 50% reduction of the initial price. Every year, more and more stores,
chain stores and service providers are taking part in Black Friday.
Many people do not believe in the sincere intentions of
sellers and accuse Black Friday of being a scam. People get manipulated and buy
something just because it's cheaper than usual. They often buy something they
don't need. Some say that stores a few weeks before Black Friday increase the
prices of their products, and on Black Friday they return to the previous
price. However, the vast majority of people do not care about these unfavorable
theories and do not intend to give up shopping on this day.
It seems that Black Friday is becoming more and more
popular, currently some stores not only organize discounts on Friday, but also
have Black Weekend or Black Week.
In 2005 Ellen Davis founded Cyber Monday. Cyber Monday is
the first Monday after the American Thanksgiving Day (the first monday after
Black Friday), which is famous for a lot of sales and promotions offered by
online stores. On Cyber Monday promotions mainly advertise online stores,
especially the smaller ones, which are difficult to compete with large retail
chains. Strangely enough, although Cyber Monday is the domain of the Internet
world, in addition to electronics, products from a completely different range
are also very popular among customers of online stores. You can easily find
offers of clothing stores, footwear stores and online bookstores.
However, the most important criterion for distinguishing
Cyber Monday remains unchanged. It applies to online shopping, i.e. without
queuing up, without leaving home. Comfortable and fast. Exactly as consumers
expect in the 21st century.

Comments
I think it's a good opportunity to buy something with a good discount but you need to be well prepared for that. It's good to think about what would you like to buy few weeks before Black Friday and monitor the prices because shops oftentimes create 'Fake Friday' by increasing the prices before.
Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
The prices are not that much lowered comparing to other countries like America when you can buy something at a really cheap prices.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I usually buy most of my thing online. It's really convenient. You don't have to spend extra time to walk around galleries and shops looking for your product. You can just order it online and in the most shops you can even order it and return for free so you don't have to worry about getting the wrong size etc.
2)Does it make sense in USA? I don't understand what kind of "sense" are you asking. It isn't crime to do it, so if anyone wants, why not?
3)I buy things online. I feel like there are things easier to purchase online while also there are things i'd rather buy in person from shop.
4)It is very general question. Stated like this - yes, these kind of sellers exist. I just don't know what part of all sellers are they.
2. Some people (including me) say that sellers increase prices before black Friday in order to lower them later just to end up with the same, or even higher price. This year someone created a system called “Fake Friday” which was scanning the databases of popular online stores some time before the Black Friday to make it possible to compare the prices and assess if the occasion is really valuable. Unfortunately, I didn’t test it myself.
3. Have I ever bought something online??? You can ask such question to a 70-year-old man 😊 Of course I did. I prefer online shopping because it is really convenient. After fourteen days return was introduced as obligatory, I prefer it even more, because I don’t risk losing my money. In the internet you are able to compare more products and more shops which offer it. That way it is harder to get tricked. I think that the only problem are the clothes, because you are not able to try something out, and the return process is sometimes cumbersome.
4. Some of them probably do practise unfair policies, however in terms of internet, if there is no illegal price fixing, it is hard to enforce disadvantageous terms.
I guess it would be really good event when prices would really go down a lot as it is in US for example. Unfortunately in Poland prices go up just before Black Friday so companies can give a really good discount so people would think about buying it.
Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
As I mentioned in previous question, not really. There are some shops/companies that make really good deals or cool presents for purchases in black friday but is a really small portion of that type of companies.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I see more advantages of shopping online and I buy a lot of things there. Recently I bought a business chair and a ps4 game.
Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Some of them yes but to be honest unfortunately there is nothing illegal in price fixing.
It's a tool as many other tools to transfer money to the shop owners and shareholders of corporations. But if You have something in mind to buy for a long time it's a great day to save some money.
Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
It makes sense if You know how to use days like that. If You are buying something only because it's on promotion and You don't need it than it makes no sense.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I'm buying most thing online as than i can compare prices and pick the best offer. So that's the main advantage for me.
Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
They can't practise unfair politics as then they wouldn't be sellers anymore. It's just how market works.
In Poland sales aren't as big as for example in USA. Sales reach 80-90 percent and you can get good item for really cheap price but the goods spread very quickly.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I bought a lot of things online and I think it's much better than going to shop. You don't need to go to each shop and try on clothes. You can order to your house and if you don't like it, you can easily return it without paying for your shipment because in most shops it's for free.
Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Some of sellers practise unfair politices. I've had a few situations that I was observing two items month before Black Friday. In the begining the price was normal as always, about one week before sales they raised the price. I checked these items on Black Friday and they lower the price to the one from the begining and put big text SALE.
I like that event. For me it's great opportunity to shop online for some Christmas gifts.
2) Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
Sure. Black Friday deals in Poland are not so good as in USA but still you can find some good offer.
3) Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I mostly buy things online. Only disadvantages I can think of is that some products look different than in reality and also it can sometimes be difficult to get the right size when shopping for clothes. Thankfully many sites offers free returns which makes online shopping even more attractive.
4) Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Yes, that's the fact. Many sellers practise unfair politics there's lots of articles about that.
I don't mind Black Friday. I think this is an opportunity, like any other, one of a kind, but people seem to pay special attention to it, so it probably works. Black Friday is a good opportunity to get interesting items for the upcoming holidays. This year I bought a monitor for my own use on this occasion, on which I saved 40% of the original cost.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
I don't follow Black Friday's popularity in Poland so much, but it's said everywhere that this is nothing special. After all, compared to Black Friday in the US, our event can not even compete with that. We hear a lot about the fact that Black Friday doesn't make sense in Poland and that it will never be adopted on such a scale as in the USA, but after all in Poland the topic of special occasions is frequently discussed and very popular. Many people definitely benefit from this event.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes, I like to buy items online. From everyday items to things worth much more, e.g. household appliances or monitors, as well as computers and laptops. I really see the pros of buying online because it's very convenient. If you don't want to drive around the stores and compare prices, you can always choose the best one on the internet and order any items straight to your home. There may always be some complications in the delivery and transport of the order, but I think that nowadays dealing with this type of difficulty is not complicated.
4. Do you think that sellers have unfair policies?
I think there will always be sellers who want to make money from someone's harm or oversight. There are many tricks in contracts or rules on which some sellers operate, but nowadays it's difficult to come across a fraud (it never happened to me, and I order items quite often, from different sources). The Polish Black Friday has established a stereotype that all original prices are inflated and the discount prices really reflect the real prices. However, this is not the problem in every case, I have not studied this phenomenon, but I think that companies that use such a procedure certainly exist.
2. No, in Poland we do not have big sales as in USA or other countries. Also many vendors used to increase prices day before Black Friday so on the next day they lower them to normal values.
3. Yes and I love it. I do not need to go to stores, to malls full of peaople. I always try to shop online.
4. Yes, as I mentioned in point 2. I know that recently this kind of behaviour has been prohibited.
1. I think it is a very good tradition. During that day you can get Christmas gifts for your friends or family, which you would have to buy anyway, but in much lower price. On Black Friday you can pic kup a real bargain.
2. I don’t think so, I fis beacuse polish sellers don’t really understand the exact idea of the Black Friday. So the offers are rather poor. Cut prices aren’t as low as in the USA. Sale prices in Poland are only about 20%-30% lower than the regular ones, and this is not the point of real Black Friday policy.
3. Yes, actually I shop online very often. Cybershopping has a lot of adventages. In my opinion it’s very convenient way of doing shopping, you don’t waste your time in the shopping mall looking for something, you just look this thing up online and buy, and the best thing is that you can do it anytime, only thing you need is a smartphone or laptop with internet connection, that’s so simple. Moreover you don’t spend money on fuel, you would have to buy if you wanted to go to the shopping centre.
4. Unfortunatelly, sometimes they do. They try to trick us by overstating the prices before cutting them for the sales , so in effect we think that the price has been reduced up to 50%, but in fact it was only 20% reduction on this price.
In my opinion, black Friday is a chance to buy things at better prices and I like this day. For example, I prepare a list of things I need and buy them this day if they are at lower prices.
Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
I think promotions always make sense!
Unfortunately, the black Friday promotions in Poland are not as big as in the USA, but it is always better than none.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Currently I buy almost everything online, it is much faster and more convenient way to shop than walking around the shops. I also do not like terribly crowded and messy shopping malls.
Do you think that sellers are practice unfair politices ?
Unfortunately, sellers are also people and they're different. Some salespeople certainly practice unfair politices.
2. It depends if you're a seller or a buyer. For sellers - of course, they earn a lot on it. If you're a buyer, you probably won't take advantage of it, as you'll spend a lot of money on things you don't need.
3. Yes, I buy online a lot. For me, the main advantage is that I don't have to go out to the shopping mall. To be honest, I don't like them. What's more, when doing shoppings online, I can see the opinions before buying, compare prices with other shops and see the history of price changes - you can't do it during 'physical' shopping and may get impulsive.
4. Yes, I think so. When it comes to business companies doesn't think about morality, they just concentrate on income. Fortunately, that's a bit different when it comes to regular sellers - they're humans also, so they probably wouldn't like to trick you. On the other hand their employers with their procedures, may force them to some 'bad' practices.
Black Friday is an interesting marketing day. Sometimes there are sales gems and you can buy something interesting at a surprisingly low price. This year, Black Friday actually lasted over a week. First was Black Week, then a cyber week, as a consequence there were several days of interesting offers. Unfortunately, there are stores that often try to cheat by raising prices the day before or simply indicate that this applies to only 1% of items.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
Black Friday makes sense in Poland, but it is less celebrated. Simply put, these are interesting offers in some stores. A good time to buy presents.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Of course. I usually buy shoes and clothes online. Recently, I even bought a computer via the Internet. However, I usually see the product in the store first, and then order online. Thanks to this, I don't have to wear them and stand in queues.
4. Do you think that sellers are practice unfair politics?
I think most of the things we buy today are very populist. They are of medium quality. But thanks to this we get a product that is affordable. Sellers are now applying returns and complaints policies very favorably.
1. It has some cool asumptions, though it leaves so much place for shops to manipulate people into spending more money than they normally would.
2. I think it might make sense in Poland. However, I mean a fair black friday, not having the same prices as before with a black friday sticker though.
3. I think online shopping is better for almost everything that clothes and food. The choice is way better and it usually doesn't matter whether it would fit you or be fresh.
4. Black friday is kind of asking for that, just as I mentioned above.
Have you been cheated on black friday?
Show off, did you buy something at a good price on black friday?
I usually buy in online stores but sometimes I prefer to see the goods in a physical store. Do you do the same?
On the one hand, I like these days, because you can often get the products you hunted for at lower prices. On the other hand, however, this is artificially driven consumerism and we often buy something that we would not normally buy.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
Looking at the promotions in Poland I can see that such a promotion does not make any sense. Polish stores often ridicule their approach to promotion, often the initial price is overstated only to show how much discount they have and in fact the final price is perhaps 10% lower than the average market price.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes, of course. Actually, I'm already buying more things online than in normal stationary stores. This trend is still reversed when it comes to grocery shopping, here I continue to focus on stationary shopping. When it comes to buying online, I have never been cheated before and looking at the prices of products in comparison to those in stores, I have already saved thousands of zlotys. Online shopping can also be done without any problems abroad, where we can get items that are not available in the official Polish distribution.
4. Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
As I have already mentioned in Poland, you have to be very careful with this type of promotions. You have to carefully check the prices in different stores before buying to not cut yourself for an artificial opportunity. Unfortunately, even the biggest shops with electronics and not only use this type of practice.
2. I don’t think so. There is no point in falling into shopping spree, queue up with bunch of people and waste precious time for 5/10/20 PLN reduction in price. Especially when the products that we buy are not essential or even necessary and usually end up being used once or twice and then forgotten.
3. I did, plenty of times. As everything in life, online shopping has both pros and cons. The main benefit, in my opinion, is the absence of queues and extended time to make up your mind. Thanks to the online shopping it’s possible, to do a good research, compare similar items in various shops, check different sites offering the same product without time pressure. Moreover, all of this is possible without leaving home! Great thing, huh? Main disadvantage in my opinion is often problematic product returns, whether it’s a courier picking up the parcel from home, or a short trip to the mall. It’s time and energy consuming task.
4. Of course, I do! Recently I’ve heard about this bot, created by a Polish guy, that collected data regarding the prices of various appliances throughout October and November, and when the Black Friday started it was possible for people, to verify if the prices were manipulated during and before this event. Moreover, there are plenty of videos on the YouTube, Instagram etc. proving, that chain stores are taking part in this scam, by manipulating the prices listed on the tags to higher ones, and later creating fake reductions to the previous price.
It depends on the country, but especially in the US it may be an opportunity for poorer people to buy something they need or dreamed of has little money. In general, the idea is very cool, worse implementation in many countries.
2.Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
Not necessarily, I haven't seen offers that would make a greater impression on me. Many occasions on Black Friday can be found every day in our stores.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes, it is definitely convenient. We don't waste time going to the store, we don't push through the crowd. While it is still cool for electronics or grocery shopping. But sometimes we can make the wrong choice about clothes.
Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Unfortunately yes. Personally, I saw stickers where especially before Black Friday increased prices were glued.
For me it's a nice time to search for some discounts on products that I was going to buy anyway. People tend to buy a lot of things that they don't need just because it's cheaper. And that's how it works and why it is beneficial for the sellers, but for customers it's often a trap that we should avoid.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
The idea is cool but in Poland it's always the same story - hoaxing and cheating. Either the prices are the same as before or discounts are like 10% or 15% which is not any deal unless you buy something expensive. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't advertised as a TOTAL BARGAIN -120% !!1!1! buy NoW.
When I hear about another "warehouse cleaning" I wonder they must have a really dirty werehouses if they clean them every 2 months.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Of course I have. I definitely see more advantages in online shopping and I always tend to buy online rather than in a stationary shops. The one benefit is certainly the time we have to thing about our new purchase and the time to read as many reviews and opinions as we can. The other advantage that is a game changer for me is the 14-days no hassle return period. I feel a lot safer when I know I can return a product when it's necessary.
4. Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
In my opinion, in general sellers are practice unfair politices, especially with their dumb commercials and with their shop assistants that are trained to convince buyers to buy trash products.
2. Yes, Black Friday in Poland makes sense. But it is a pity that these are only advertising slogans and not real discounts.
3. Yes I bought a lot of things online. It just so happens that I have a parcel machine right next to the house and it is closer than to any store (even grocery store). Shipments are free in most stores, so I'm happy to order online.
4. Do not. It all depends on the buyers. You have to have your own mind, not rely on the fair / unfair practices from the seller.
2. Why not? Perhaps Poland has not yet entered the rhythm of Black Friday, but it is definitely gaining momentum.
3. Constantly buying through the Internet. I hate shopping in the traditional sense: your legs get tired, you spend a lot of time looking at what's in the neighboring store, you get hungry, you spend time eating at the mall, you compare prices, and in the end you go to google what you're looking for and where to buy it. Of course, in online shopping there are disadvantages - in the choice of clothes for example. It is very difficult here without fitting and tactile checking for me. But on the subject of gadgets or household items - great. All the characteristics and sizes are written down. I also like the function of ordering the right item in the nearest shop. Or just checking the availability of the right item, and you can go straight to where you can buy exactly what you need.
4. This happens. And for this it is important to turn on the brain when you're shopping.
I think it’s a great marketing trick to make people spend more money than they usually would. Looking at the crowds in shopping malls during Black Friday and the upcoming days, I’d say it’s working very well and retailers are making a lot of money and the clients are happy.
Does Black Friday make sense in Poland?
I don’t think it makes sense, because there is usually -15%, maybe -20% discount and it tricks people into thinking they are making a great deal, where in fact the prices are raised before black friday, so you’re buying everything in a similar price. People also tend to spend more money on more products, that when there wouldn’t be any discounts. Whereas in America the discounts can go up to -80%, which makes more sense for the idea of Black Friday.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes I have. The pros are that you can buy goods without leaving your house, some are unavailable in normal shops and can only be found online. You also don’t have to go to shops which are usually crowded, especially before Christmas. On the other hand, there are also many cons to online shopping. One of them is that you have to wait for the delivery a few days, sometimes weeks. It’s even harder for people who are impatient and what to have it right after the purchase. People also have to be careful where they buy stuff, because not every shop on the Internet is reliable and we can easily be scammed.
Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Marketing is usually unfair for the client, but not for the seller. They want the consumer to buy as much as they can to make a big profit. Almost everything they do is legal and it’s up to us to learn their techniques and see how to prevent them, in order to be a smart buyer. There are many articles online and videos on youtube that uncover many examples of how we are getting tricked into buying more and spending more money.
2. In my opinion there is no use to buy anything in Poland during Black Friday, because very often prices are higher in compare to proces before this event. In addition, I think that Black Friday in Poland it's great opportunity for corporations to swindle money out of millions of people.
3. Yes, I have. I primarly buy online, because I can save time, compare prices and read testimonials. If I shop online, I don't need to look for parking stop. In my opinion it's a major benefit of shopping online, especially before the holidays. On the other hands, if you decided to shop online you can't try clothes, touch materials or notice how it's made. In addition, you need to wait for delivery and pay for shipping.
4. Some of them practise unfair politices, but nowadays it doesn't pay off, because if customers notice it they can buy the same things online or go to another shop.
2. I think that Black Friday makes sense in Poland but you have to be careful because not everything that looks like an opportunity is actually not.
3. Currently, I buy more online, because online store prices are more competitive.
4. I believe that sellers apply unfair policies, especially during Black Friday, they behave differently abroad stores. It is often better to order items from foreign online stores during Black Friday because prices are much better.
2. Not really. We have not only Black Friday, but Black Weekend or all Week. Even when people have all week to buy thing the still waiting on Friday. And if you really want to buy something chipper, you have to spend a few weeks to look how shops changing prices. And when we have 'Black Week', then 'Black Friday', next 'Black Weekend to Monday' and finally 'Cyber Monday' and you never know, what shops do with proces.
3. Of course. It depends on what I want to buy. It has advantages and disadvantages. If you but clothes it’s better to go to the mall because you can try on. But online shopping is good because you can buy staff from other city or country and you can return it to the shop (not possible in every normal shop) and it's quicker, because you haven't go outside etc.
4. I think that more of them practice unfair policy, of course not everyone. They know that people sometimes don't look at crossed out prices, so e.g. in online shops, old price is crossed and new one it's the same one or in normal shop you have posters with very big percent and small sentence about the discount.
2. I think it does. Is a good moment to buy presents for family as Christmas is close
3. Personnally, I see more disadvantages in online shopping, but if I do not need domething urgent and is a online store I trust, then I order online. But I prefer the classic shopping.
4. All related with marketing is not fair. As goes for store policies, I wouldn't use word "unfair", maybe "half-truth".
The idea is cool, I think, especially in domestic retails which don’t have to adjust the prices for all markets as for example Amazon does. I checked Walmart web page out of curiosity and I could find there many fantastic occasions. On the other hand, BF in Poland is a bit of time waste – discounts are low and usually those prices are the original ones which were increased a few weeks before the event so that the final price is the same. Also, there was a case lately that the seller on Allegro was selling stuff with a big discount and then refused to send the products to people who bought them.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
No I don’t think so as I said in the previous answer.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes, I do this regularly as I don’t have time for driving through half a city to a shopping center which is crowded, loud and generally annoying.
4. Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Yes, I think my answer in question number one says everything.
1) What do you think about Black Friday?
I avoid it as much as possible. I try to spend no money on Black Friday. I'm just aware that it's mostly about retailers trying to get me to spend as much as possible -- and any other day of the year, I try to not spend any more than I have to. Why should it be different today?
2) Does Black Friday make a sense in Poland?
Yes, markets are needing some excuses to show their products get "reduce priced".
3) Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
Yes, I mostly buy online anymore.
4) Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
Yes.
1. I think it is a great opportunity to find some good deals. Moreover the idea of this day is great. But I mean real deals not a fake one what is very popular in Poland. If I have a chance to buy something with extra price.
2. In my opinion it has the same sense like in others country in the world. There are customers, shops and products. So it has sense to organize it.
3. I prefer to buy things online. I see only addvantages of it. Fristly you do not have to walk and looking for the product. Secondly, you have more time, because there may be quees. There are a lot more. If I can I always buy things online.
4. Yes, there are a lot of sellers who are rasing the price a week before black friday and then they are doing and discount. We as a customers are seeing a great deal, but is selled in regular price. I think it is not fair. These last black friday I found an interesting app named "fake friday". There you can check a "great" deals.
2. Not yet. For now i think it is just cheap marketing manipulation. We are not fully prepared for sale like black friday. In Poland many shops are using term sale but truth is they want people to buy as many things as possible although people are not foolish enough.
3. Buying things online is really good option. You don't need any contact with people and you can ignore social interactions completely.
4. Their politics must be fair or they wouldn't be able to sell anything. Are their intentions fair or not - that is a real question.
2. Currently, I do not see any sense, because the reductions are small or there are no relative discounts.
3. I often shop online, I usually buy specialty coffee, electronics and some accessories.
4. In Poland definitely, especially in the case of electronics. On social media there were many examples of how sellers cheat. Sellers often raise the price a few days before to lower it on Black Friday.
1, 2 & 4. In the US, it's a nice day to get something, that would be otherwise too expensive for us. So it's a really nice day if someone likes to be stuck in long queues. In Poland though? It's nothing more that a plain scam. Practically all big shops raise prices in advance so they can put a big discount on them. Unfortunately most of people aren't aware of it and they think they got great deals, while in reality they usually pay full 'original' price. It's nice that many people over internet are aware of it and often warn others of those unfair practises.
3. I hate shopping in person. I buy almost everything aside from groceries online. The biggest advantage is that I can do it from my home, and it's enough for me to stick to online shopping. While it comes to disadvantages then I can see only 2. First we can order wrong size, while it comes to apparel, but size charts are usually enough to get good one, and if we don't, then we can always return it and order different one. Second is fact that we sometimes have to return something, whether it's apparel we don't fit or our delivery came damaged.
The first Black Friday took place in the USA and in this way the day following Thanksgiving was celebrated. Since then, big sales have been organized every year at the end of November, of which they also benefit.
2. Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
Of course it has. You just need to check whether the stores are not fooling us, some of them especially raise the price earlier to lower it later.
3. Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more adwantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
I often buy online, of course from reliable stores. It is a very convenient form. I don't have to leave the house or queue. A product that does not match can always be returned.
4. Do you think that sellers are practise unfair politices ?
As I wrote earlier, there are unfair shops and fair. You need to plan your shopping wisely and not be fooled.
I think it is a great marketing strategy to increase an income for stores. On the other hand, there are some great deals, which helps you to save some money.
Does Black Friday make a sens in Poland?
I don't know. I think the situation here is the same as in the other parts of the world.
Have you ever bought something online? Do you see more advantages or disadvantages of online shopping?
