Forums - Sales Discussion - Uk has adopted Black Friday!

It seems like they have to work out the kinks over there. Still, I don't know how bad it was on the US. Here in PR it was relatively calm.



Around the Network

Its been here in the UK for some time in an online capacity.

The media aren't the brightest of animals so it takes a while for them to catch on.

Bit like the Internet and the World Wide Web. Around since 1992 but only reported in the National papers around 1996.

It takes em a while, bless !



BF has reached europe for years already, amazon uk has had it for a long time already and stores in Portugal have been doing it for like 3 years now
it's no big news



In Romania, Black Friday is like a two week span in the middle of November, where most of the stores have several days of price cuts on a variety of items. The price reductions are not extreme, but there are good deals to be found (or, an online store can fuck up the prices and then sell for example a 2000 dollar laptop for 1 dollar - it recently happened apparently).

Interestingly, today, there is only one store that advertises an "US Black Friday" and that's it.

More deals for me!



Yes that's true. Though the Daily Mail isn't really the best source out there.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Seems like more and more countries do Black Friday now.



I dont get Black Friday, why the name and the date??



It is our sinister plan to Americanize Europe. First we send over our fast food companies to fatten you up and then we send our stupid holiday traditions.
