Black Friday is just weeks away
While Black Friday is set to take place on Friday 25 November, many retailers have already started slashing prices on everything from beauty to fashion to the latest technology.
Alternatively, it’s a great opportunity to tick some things off of the Christmas list, with 89% of shoppers using the sale period to make some of their festive purchases, says Barclays.Do make use of price trackers When you’re being bombarded by Black Friday ‘special deals’, it can be hard to work out whether something really is a bargain.
Do think about your payment method If you are using a credit card to make purchases, you could see if there are any points or rewards on offer. And when making more expensive purchases, it may be worth considering a credit card which offers 0% interest on spending for a certain period. However, make sure you can comfortably clear the balance before interest kicks in. Additionally, some ways of paying, such as PayPal, offer extra protections if something goes wrong.
Don’t take chances With buyers looking for cut price items, scammers often use Black Friday as an opportunity to strike. As a result, being alert for any phishing emails, dodgy links and offers on unfamiliar websites that look too good to be true is crucial. While it may be easy to jump at a seeming opportunity to save some money, you should take a step back when browsing unfamiliar websites and establish whether what you’re looking at is all as it seems.
