Is Black Friday what it used to be?
Retailers in the United States and other countries are gearing up for Black Friday, the traditional start of the holiday shopping season. Despite the rise of online shopping, many shoppers still prefer the in-store experience for trying on items. Retailers are offering enticing deals and promotions to attract customers, with some focusing on impulse purchases and self-gifting to boost sales. Analysts predict a solid holiday shopping season, with online sales already exceeding expectations. Black Friday weekend is expected to be a key indicator of consumer spending for the rest of the season.
