The FJ Guide to: Black Friday sales
Because we can benefit from Black Friday too.
It’s currently Thanksgiving over in America which means that soon, the clock will tip over to the shopping day of days that is Black Friday.
The American equivalent of our boxing day sales (well, kinda), Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving in which American retailers make everything super cheap and we all lose our minds. The day draws it’s name from the fact that retailer’s profits go “in the black”, which is excellent news for all of us, even down here in Oz.
Although Black Friday isn’t officially a “thing” in Australia, with the increased globalisation of online shopping we can still nab the bargains that this joyous occasion brings.
To help you out in your newfound shopping endeavour, we scoured the internet for rumoured Black Friday sales and compiled a list of our favourites that you can take advantage of Down Under.
