Huge Black Friday deals on the lower north shore just in time for Christmas. See the list!
By ANNA USHER
Local retailers have come out swinging with a swag of Black Friday deals to kick start your Christmas festivities.
What started as an American shopping tradition, has become a retail highlight around the world, with millions of Australians set to take part in the sales this year. And it’s no different here on the lower north shore.
Data from the Australian Retailers Association (ARA), in partnership with Roy Morgan, shows that Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are expected to account for more than a quarter of all holiday purchases this year.
It forecasts shoppers will spend $6.36 billion across the four-day Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend (24-27 November). That’s 3 per cent (or $188 million) higher than last year.
ARA chief executive Paul Zahra says while cost of living pressures including higher interest rates could see more subdued pre-Christmas spending, Black Friday will give retailers a much-needed boost.
For many discretionary retailers, up to two-thirds of their profit is made during the peak Christmas trading period, so PLEASE SHOP LOCAL this weekend, and help shop keepers in our little part of the world keep their heads above water!
