Just seen an item on the news about Black Friday deals. Researchers for a consumer group found that 9 out of 10 deals currently on offer have actually been cheaper at other times earlier this year. My brother was saying something similar. When he lived in the U.S. Black Friday would involve huge price slashes with, say, a £800 TV going for about £200 as stores became desperate to get rid of old stock. Here, you're lucky if you get 15% off something on Black Friday.
