@inquestion7: Remember when Black Friday was about one day of massive discounts? In South Africa, it has become Black November, with retailers advertising weeks of deals, countdowns and supposedly unbeatable savings. But are shoppers really getting a bargain, or are some retailers inflating prices before slashing them again to create the illusion of a discount? A South African price-tracking example reveals how a speaker system went from R2,999 to R6,499 before being advertised at R2,999 as a special offer. So, are you actually saving money this Black Friday, or are you being manipulated into spending more? We unpack the importance of checking price histories, understanding retail pricing tactics and knowing your consumer rights before shopping this Black Friday. Don't believe the discount percentage. Check the actual price. #blackfriday #southafrica #blackfridaysales #consumerrights #consumerprotection #consumerspending #consumerawareness #InQuestion
