Inflation-wary U.S. consumers flock to 'Black Friday' deals

Wife said there are no more 50% deals. And it is only on certain items.

Black Friday for white sheep..

According to the leftiies.. The US was a paradise and people were enjoying the price hike and inflation for 4 years... Then now what happened ?? suddenly!!

BF seems to last for at least two weeks in the UK.

Just be sensible with your cash and shop around. Don't buy for the sake of it and don't lump stuff on credit cards as they have loan shark rates. If you can, save up for stuff and then get it, without paying huge amounts of interest.

My exercise bike expired last week. Getting an unexpected 20% off a replacement was welcome, so I can't complain. Plus it has prevented some of the Christmas stuff from expanding into November.

Shop for your job! If you like Black Friday or not, doesn't play a role here. If we don't buy ourselves the many products we all produced, we'll simply be fired.

It's a tale of two consumers, those with assets the younger and poorer cohorts without significant assets.

Any top retailer mgmt. team outside of non-discretionary will tell you most of their sales and profits come from the wealthy, far more than in years past.

That's not a good economy, why over 70% thought US was heading in a bad direction in exit polling on Nov 5th.

The only thing I ran out for was $15 1/8’s !

Got a bunch at different places.

'Is today Black Friday' in Nippon...?

Today is already Sunday, but the message is unchanged:

Spend! Spend! Consumer spend!
