When Should You Shop? Right After Black Friday

Following the advice of one friend, as I didn't had any idea of what I could  write about, I googled Black Friday. Among all the consumerism stuff, the excesses and the  fake sales, I've finally  find out an interesting article. It talks about the truth hidden behind the Black Friday deals. 

The article explains that the best time to get the best deals on electronics products is in the two to three days after Black Friday. Why? Because it's when the prices tend to bottom out. So the best moment to drop, it's when the older models of goods had fallen in price over the weekend after Black Friday, when the newest models are introduced to the market because of the Christmas season.
Therefore, if you stay at home on Friday and you wait few days to shop online, you will truly get the best deals.


Moreover, it reminds us that the prices can be different in the brick-and-mortar stores and online, and that the sales patterns for other products can be different. It gives to us the example of the toys prices that don't bottom out until two weeks before Christmas, more or less.

And finally, it ends with the advice that we wouldn't buy items if we don't really want to. 

I've chosen this article because I absolutely disagree with Black Friday, because I think that it's just a trick to promote the consumerism, like valentine's day.
