Basically don’t shop for anything noncritical from yesterday until 02 Dec (Tuesday).
And try not to use credit cards for anything you do have to purchase.
(I think debit cards are ok)Does Black Friday even mean anything anymore? What with the pre-Black Friday sales and the post-Black Friday sales. Is every day Black Friday now? Another poster mentioned that we have enough big screen TV’s and suggested Black Friday “grocery” sales this year. Anyway, as a Canadian, I’m still doing my homework so I can avoid spending any money on american made products.
Least in the US side I can’t say I’ve seen anything that doesn’t follow the pattern of $75>
$125>$89.99!!! Get your Black Friday deal now!
A good thing happening in Norway these days, with our black Friday, black week and even black month offers, national inflation levels are even higher in October than the rest of the year now, that people have lost faith in the offers and are staying away from them.
Considering this is literally the first time I’m even hearing of this I’m going to guess this isn’t going to be very impactful :/
There’s been talk of it on other social media for quite a long time, all over TikTok and even my friends still on Twitter and insta have asked about it. You might be right but I also don’t think these kind of movements have targeted the fediverse platforms
I was thinking more about news coverage, but I guess I should have realized they would never want to cover something like this because the billionaire owned media wouldn’t want people to know about it.
Oh yeah it won’t get any play like that, the Seattle Times has a piece on it but even if it’s really successful I wouldn’t expect MSNBC to cover it, Fox might if they can spin it as the godless lefts war on Christmas but they also risk spreading the word that way.
Not impactful? Not with that attitude. Get on board friend.
