Black Friday is considered the shopping day par excellence.
But sometimes waiting can be worthwhile - because with some deals you can only really save after Friday.
Black Friday on November 27th is considered the bargain day.
But even after Friday there are still offers that are sometimes even more worthwhile.
For some products it is worth waiting - for example for Cyber Monday.
Munich - Many
bargain hunters must have been looking
forward to
November 27th
.
On
Black Friday
attract numerous companies with special
deals
and
discounts
.
In
online retail in
particular, many buyers have therefore already filled their virtual wish lists in advance so as
not to miss out on
offers
, which are only valid for a limited time.
But what if the reduced coffee machine, the laptop or the pair of shoes that were previously too expensive
are
sold out
?
For many
buyers
, the disappointment is probably great.
Black Friday: do the best deals come afterwards?
Analysis delivers surprising results
However, according to an article in
Business Insider,
there is no need to mop up about it.
According to the news site, it can even be worthwhile
to miss out
on deals on Black Friday
- there are
other
deals
even after the
bargain day
.
Above all, the portal mentions
discounts
on a day that
follows
shortly after
Black Friday
:
Cyber Monday on November 30th
.
On average, even more can be saved on this day, they say.
Monday competes with Friday by
attracting
even better deals
.
Reference is made to an
analysis of
the browser extension
Honey
.
Accordingly, consumers save an
average of 21 percent
on
Cyber Monday
.
On
Black Friday
, however, it is only 18.5 percent.
Although the gap is not particularly large, Monday is ahead.
The fear of buying stuff on Black Friday and it being cheaper on Cyber Monday is real 😭

Black Friday and Cyber Monday: When to wait for a bargain?
The
Business Insider
continues,
especially for consumers who are interested in
older products
.
There are mostly
discounts
on
brand new products
only on
Black Friday
- the new items sell out quickly.
Older and
predecessor models
, on the other hand, are usually
reduced
on
Cyber Monday
, where prices often drop deeply.
In general,
smaller purchases
- including
Christmas gifts
,
for example
- would be more worthwhile
on Monday
.
On the
other hand,
high-priced devices such as
televisions
or
computers
that are the latest model should not be waited too long.
Shopping on Cyber Monday: Browsing can be worthwhile - but beware of fraud
The portal has another tip on the way:
Browsing
on
platforms like Ebay
could be
worthwhile
on
Cyber Monday
- many users then try
to get rid of
their
bad purchases from Friday
.
Here, too, a little bit of thought is required - the police have already warned of fraudsters on the Internet.
But whether
Black Friday
or
Cyber Monday
- sometimes the cheap price has a catch.
It can help to take
another
look
at
comparison
portals
such as
idealo.de
,
billiger.de
or
guenstiger.de
.
You shouldn't be put under pressure by psychological tricks like running countdowns.
