Black Friday 2022

Black Friday Cyber Monday 2022: Going Beyond the Promos

 

Bargain hunting is fast approaching. What was originally reserved for the United States has long since gained popularity in Europe as well, and Ireland is no exception. Who, after all, isn't convinced by a good offer for only a fraction of the original price?

 

Nowadays, the term Black Friday was first coined in 1869 on September 24th, conjuring up an all too vivid scenario of an impatient crowd caught up in the clamor and anticipation outside the shops. So, the goal is to bring home a plentiful supply of shopping bags. People will be able to enjoy their dream object at the lowest prices. But this has not always been the case!

 

In reality, the story of Black Friday isn't quite what it says. In the 1950s, American police officers used the term chaos to describe what happened on the streets of Philadelphia after Thanksgiving. That's when a tide of tourists and small-town shoppers flooded the city for the annual Army and Navy football game that takes place every Saturday after Thanksgiving.

 

However long it would take for the police to restore order and control, the shoplifters would use their cunning to sneak through all the security loops.

 

Around 1980, retailers had successfully reinvented the day, turning it into the sales marathon we know today. Also, the "red to black" concept was introduced much later, when US stores were finally making a profit. A myth, as the statistics show, but one that persists.

 

 

Likewise, Cyber ​​​​​​​​​​​Monday was created for people who did not want to go out to queue in stores. The Cyber Monday marketing term is relatively new, it was only introduced in 2005. There is not such a rich background to explore unlike Black Friday. Either way, it exists to encourage people to shop online.

 

In the spirit of special sales, Office Supplies Ireland is offering great deals for Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday respectively, so why not check it out while you're at it?
