Black Friday Sale: Black Friday has become one of the biggest events in the e-commerce industry in recent years. Celebrated the day after Thanksgiving, Black Friday marks the official start of the holiday shopping season that runs through Christmas and New Year’s.
But lately, retailers have been spending weeks discounting and flooding customers’ phones with deal notifications and emails, with all sales culminating on Black Friday.
While sales trends are shifting, the best deals on this date are available from Black Friday to Cyber Monday. This is especially true for big ticket items including electronics, as well as seasonal items and the latest trending products.
US retailers generate 20% of their annual sales in November and December, according to a Bloomberg report.
This year, companies are competing for an increasingly sensitive and anxious consumer. While people are still willing to spend — especially those in the top 10% of earners — they’re being picky about where they put their dollars. Some shoppers say they plan to use Black Friday sales not to splurge but to stock up on essentials, according to a Bloomberg report.
