The biggest shopping event of the year is here. It’s Black Friday. However, Black Friday has turned into more than just a day; with sales starting weeks in advance and continuing up to Cyber Monday. It can be hard to know where to start, and difficult not to overspend. In this article, we’ll be looking at the top 5 ways you can use Chatloop on Black Friday and Cyber Monday to help you spend more consciously, and with less stress.
Check your wishlist items
The best place to start is with your wishlist. These are products you’ve probably had your eye on for a little while now and know that you want. When you dive into your wishlist, you can click into the items to find out whether they’ve gone into the sale, which will help you find the best deals this Black Friday. Make sure to shop around too. It might be that something you’ve seen on Curry’s, is actually cheaper over on Amazon’s Black Friday sale. With Chatloop, you get that additional time to research your purchase rather than buying spontaneously in the shops.
See what’s trending
If you have an idea of where you want to start but haven’t built up a wishlist, take a look at what’s trending in certain categories and amongst your peers. It could be that the Apple iPad you’ve been wanting for a while now, actually has huge savings to be made that you didn’t expect. It’s expected brands like Adidas, Curry’s, Amazon and Zara will be some of the top trending brands for this year’s Black Friday, so keep them in mind for big savings. But remember, you’re not saving money if you weren’t going to buy it already.
Loop your friends into items you think they’ll love
Do you have a friend that’s just moved house? Or maybe a friend that just hasn’t stopped talking about the sparkly top they saw in Zara for the upcoming party season. If you see something you think a friend would appreciate in the Black Friday sale, loop them in and let them know. With Chatloop, you can make Black Friday shopping social from the comfort of your own home. Avoid the overwhelming experience of hitting the high streets and get looped in.
Ask your friends for opinions
As we said, Black Friday can still be social without the need to even leave the house. Whether you’re working this Friday and can’t make it to the shops, or if you just don’t enjoy the hustle and bustle; you can shop with friends no matter where you are. If you’ve found something you like but want a second opinion, just loop your friends in and ask them what they think. They might have even seen a better Black Friday deal elsewhere and save you extra money.
Read Reviews
Make an informed decision before you buy. See unbiased reviews that other loopers have dropped across the web. For example, if you’re in the market for a new coffee machine from Currys; you can see what other people have been saying about it or take a look at the ratio of likes to dislikes on the product to get a feel for whether it’s worth the money.
