Use Cyber Monday for Christmas gifts?
A lot is bought online at Christmas in particular.
Online retailers earn every fourth euro of their total annual turnover in November and December; in retail it is almost one in five.
According to industry
expectations,
Black Friday
(November 27th) and
Cyber Monday
(November 30th) also contribute - days of action with special offers based on the US model.
Germans would spend up to 1.8 billion euros on these days with a click of the mouse, at least the retailers had hoped in previous years.
But what impact is the
corona crisis having
on
consumers'
Black Friday shopping
plans
?
Can traditional retail at least make up for some of the lockdown losses from spring in the end of the year?
The Internet portal BlackFriday.de got to the bottom of these and other questions in a Germany-wide and representative survey in October 2020.
The result: For traditional retail, the results do not suggest a positive trend reversal for the upcoming
Christmas business
, as stated in the October 2020 announcement.
Rather, it can be assumed that the majority of customers will increasingly do their planned Christmas shopping online on Black Friday due to the ongoing corona pandemic.
It could possibly look similar on Cyber Monday.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday come from the USA.
While "Black Friday" is also implemented by traditional, i.e. "offline", companies, Cyber Monday is a purely online campaign in which online shops offer cheaper products.
In recent years in particular, it has grown in popularity.
While
electronic devices
are
mainly
offered at reduced prices
on
Cyber Monday
,
Black Friday is
interesting for those
who want to buy new
items in terms of
fashion or beauty
.
Nevertheless, you should pay close attention to whether the product that is supposedly offered to you as cheaper is really worth it.
For example, the North Rhine-Westphalia consumer advice center warns of the offers.
Because the discounts would therefore
often be above the usual commercial prices
.
