everything you need to know

Until a few years ago, the Black Friday it concerned only American consumers, who took advantage of the traditionally established date after Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, to buy any type of product at a discounted price.

Origin. In the sixties, American shopkeepers, to push Christmas consumption, offered lower prices up to 80% and the singular name would derive (even if there are different sources in this regard) from the book of accounts which at the time was written by merchants, with the 'black ink if the balance was in surplus, that is, if the sales were good. Others explain its origin, referring to traffic paralyzed by discount hunters.

Date. Whatever the origin, today the term Black Friday has entered the common language, going beyond the American borders and therefore also in Italy, the date is fixed on the calendar of our digital devices to remind us that this year is the 29 November, the right day to save and make a good purchase, maybe a few weeks in advance for Christmas. Also because the following Monday, 2nd December, will be another day of discounts, called Cyber ​​Monday, and therefore the discounts will be throughout the weekend.

What to do. If, in fact, Black Friday falls on November 29, on the web it is useful to keep an eye on the prices of the products we intend to buy, at least two weeks before the official date, to take advantage of promotions or to keep in mind the price trend of what we intend to buy.

Black Friday Amazon. In the flood of network offers, it is always a good idea to rely on the most reliable and transparent sites in the purchase, not surprisingly, the Amazon site has always been the most clicked during the Black Friday period and beyond. Moreover, unlike the Amazon Prime Day, in which the offers are addressed to Prime customers, (those who subscribe to an annual subscription that allows discounts on goods, the cancellation of transport costs and access to the Amazon Prime Video channel and Prime Music), in Black Friday Amazon everyone can get the balances, provided you have an Amazon account. During Black Friday the discounts can be up to 70%, but you have to be quick because the offers are timed and the best items are snapped up fast.

Types of Offers. During the Black Friday 2019 the offers will be many, here are four types of offers to juggle in search of the best discount. There are the offers of the day, valid for the entire duration of Black Friday, those flash, which last a few hours on a limited stock, the offers on display, a list presented from time to time by Amazon, and finally the Prime previews, that is the offers available as a preview for Amazon Prime customers.
