These retailers are offering Black Friday deals right now
Walmart’s massive Black Friday event will be followed by an equally impressive Cyber Monday sales bonanza, but with a huge twist. Below is a list of B2B deals that could benefit your business. So be sure to check back for even more offers.
“While J.C. Penney recognizes and values the importance of the Thanksgiving holiday, we’ve also learned that many customers enjoy the tradition of shopping together as a family to take advantage of the biggest deals of the year”, a spokesperson said.
All of Walmart’s Cyber Monday promotions will be available online on Sunday, November 29th, starting at 8:00 p.m. EST. But each day Amazon is offering new discounts on various items, including plenty of electronics and office supplies.
“Because of our store being privately-owned, we thankfully get Black Friday off”, Fox said. There is no lower price advertised in Black Friday ads.
Since those shoppers who could not get faster access to Internet, Cyber Monday was started few years ago to help them go to office where faster internet access would help them clinch deals online. Smartphones, tablets, computers, components, printers and software are all included in the sales, some of which are already available.
“It is not unusual for some retailers to make last-minute changes to their plans”, Gielczyk said.
Sporting goods store, REI is announcing it will stay closed on Black Friday, they’re asking customers spend the day outside instead. Doors open Thursday at 5 p.m. Check out Best Buy’s website for these deals. A variety of retailers has been advertising deals for “Black Friday”, the day after Thanksgiving and one of the busiest purchasing days, for weeks.
“Black Friday is quickly losing its meaning on many fronts”, said Neil Stern, senior partner at Chicago-based retail consulting firm McMillanDoolittle.
“Not every deal you will see for Black Friday is a great deal”, said NerdWallet’s Sean McQuay.
And now, that mentality seems to be spilling over to Cyber Monday, too.
The change is aimed at providing a simpler and more convenient experience for customers who are searching the Web on Sunday night and often waiting up past midnight to do their shopping.
For those planning to march in and out of stores next week, Fox and Houghtion have advice for you.
