“People who tend to be shopaholics may be the most likely to become addicted to promotions such as Black Friday. This includes those who experience personal dissatisfaction and those who use shopping as a way to meet emotional needs,” the doctor said.
He emphasized that it is important to be careful and aware of your needs when participating in such events.
Black Friday starts in Russia on November 24 and will last for three days. Stores, marketplaces and service companies participate in this.
Lawyer, head of the Law and Order Center in Moscow and the Moscow Region Alexander Khaminsky previously registeredDuring Black Friday, discounts of up to 40-60% are advertised on marketplace pages. But, in his opinion, most often this is nothing more than a way to attract buyers. During such promotions, you should be guided by commercial law, which stipulates that no one will work at a loss. The expert added that for buyers, the size of the discount is often more important than the final price of the product, and sellers benefit from this.
