Black Friday celebrated its triumphant advance in Germany

Black Friday and the associated shopping offers have also been extremely popular in Germany for several years. No wonder. After all, the end of November offers the ideal starting shot to start the Christmas shopping phase. Since 2013, one can say that Black Friday has also established itself with German customers as a prelude and as the "holiday of the bargain hunters". No wonder: after all, more and more companies and retailers have jumped on the bandwagon over the years. The range of offers now ranges from electronics to fashion & beauty to interiors.

In addition, the most diverse "shopping types" are served. So it doesn't matter on Black Friday whether you prefer to move from shop to shop on the shopping mile and scour the shelves for great offers, prefer to visit online retailers that span multiple markets and products, such as Amazon, or specifically the online store or flagship pays a visit to the favorite brands. You can find the deals pretty much everywhere (and of course bundled here with us).

Why actually Black Friday?

Have you ever asked yourself why THE shopping highlight of the year has such a negative connotation? After all, "Black Friday" is associated with a really bad day for the global economy. The stock market crash of 1929 as a model for excessive shopping? Strange. In fact, it is no longer clear where the name Black Friday for today's discount battle comes from. Some say it should be a reminder of the chaos that prevailed on the Friday after the stock market crash. Others think that the dealers get very black hands from counting a lot of money and still others think that the many customers are merging into a black mass. Every story has something of its own, right ?!

Is Black Friday just a big hoax?

Basically at the same time as the spread of Black Friday in Germany, the debate about the real benefits and savings for buyers also grew. Because one thing is certain: not every advertised discount is real. What do we mean? If a product is, let's say, sold with a 50 percent discount, this does not automatically mean that the buyer also saves 50 percent. Often this information is based on significantly higher original prices. But if this product has been on the market for a while, it was certainly no longer the previous RRP price before Black Friday. That doesn't mean that the customer doesn't save something anyway. But it could be, for example, that the savings are "only" 15 percent. You should be aware of this and ideally observe products that you have wanted for a long time a few weeks before Black Friday in order to then better classify the price or the savings.

A little hint: It's best to make a shopping list before Black Friday 2020. That might sound boring and of course we like to let ourselves be carried away by the offers and make impulsive purchases. But if you think about what you really need beforehand, you will also know in case of doubt whether it is only the second or the tenth "unnecessary" additional purchase.

We wish you a great bargain hunt on Black Friday 2020!
