Every year ... Black Friday comes around again and leads to controversial discussions. Environmentalists criticize the consumer madness, bargain hunters eagerly await discounts. And the Swiss?

No time? blue News summarizes for you

  • Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving in the USA.
  • As this holiday always falls on the fourth Thursday in November, the following Friday is considered the start of the Christmas shopping season.
  • In the blue News survey, you can find out what the Swiss think of the bargain day and what they plan to buy this year.

Black Friday is the day of the big sale. On the last Friday in November, stores and online stores traditionally outdo each other with discount campaigns.

However, not every offer is actually a bargain. It's always worth comparing prices online.

Discount battle starts earlier and earlier

One thing is certain, however: whether you like it or not, hardly anyone can avoid Bargain Day. Weeks before the deadline, online stores in particular are advertising reduced offers.

blue News went to the Glatt shopping center to find out from the Swiss whether Black Friday is an issue for them and what they have on their shopping list.
