Black Friday Ads Can Be Very Misleading
Black Friday Ads Can be Very Misleading
Across America there will be millions of people reading Black Friday ads and hoping they can get to the stores to shop for the deals. These ads are often misleading. They may quote a ridiculous price for something, offering it for much lower than its value. Who wouldn't want to take advantage of that? The problem is there are only a handful of the product advertised that they will sell for that price. You go to the store and expect to find the product only to discover they were only selling ten at the marked down price. Black Friday is probably the busiest shopping day of the year. More people go out the day after thanksgiving in hopes of a great deal than any other time of the year. This leads to impatient crowds and unhappy people that you have to deal with. What if I told you that you can get deals online and it doesn't have to be Black Friday?
Online stores sell for less than shopping centers and malls. This is just a fact. There are online auction websites that offer the products at the price you decide. You bid on the items that interest you. This means you only pay what you want, not what a store decides. There are many online auctions that sell their goods for less than the Black Friday deals, but they offer them all year for that price or the price you bid. Granted you do have to win the bid. Bidding will usually last about a week on most auctioned items. In the time that bidding is going on you can change your bid if you wish to get the item for a little higher than you originally bid. The highest bidder wins the items.
All online stores will give you great prices every day of the year, but auction websites are the lowest priced. You can purchase just about anything. If it is for sale somewhere else you will be able to find it on an auction site. Bidding can be addictive as you learn how to do it and you start to take advantage of the huge savings over malls and shopping centers. You can bid on more than one item at a time. You pay for what you win.
There are penny auctions which are a little more confusing. With penny auctions you bid in small increments but you are charged for every bid you place. You could win a computer for 20.00 but you spent 50.00 in bids. That means you got the computer for 70.00. The problem isn't when you win the bid but when you lose. If you spent 50.00 in bids you still have to pay that 50.00 but you don't have the computer to show for it. Many people find it is worth the loss for as much as you can save. This is a judgment call on your part.
English auctions are the most common. The high bidder wins the item being bid on. You can bid as much as you want or as little as you want. Remember to keep an eye out and watch that it doesn't sell for more than it is worth. You can get addicted to winning and bid too high.
