to all players in the economy
" and asked them in front of the senators:
"
Is next Friday really the right date to organize Black Friday?
"
.
The Minister of the Economy therefore recommends that they postpone this operation.

“
Black Friday is not regulated at all, we have carried out investigations on this operation and it is amazing!
», Protested the defender of consumers, who affirms, with supporting evidence, that prices are inflated just before Black Friday to announce record promotions.
“
Black Friday does not guarantee good deals, the prices are crazy.
We are instrumentalizing consumers' desires for consumption, but with phony promotions

"
The ability to be fooled on this operation is maximum,

We wait for Bruno Le Maire to mobilize the repression of fraud rather than gesticulating,
”he
loses his
temper.
"
France should regulate promotions with the establishment of a reference price, why Bruno Le Maire does not do it?
“Asks the president of the consumer association.
“
Rather than gesticulating over the date, he has the powers to really act
,” he adds.
We need to better supervise Black Friday and integrate the Community directive on this point
