Black Friday is just around the corner, only this year the main (and perhaps only) arena is online.

Consumers who were not accustomed to shopping online and class their feet to the familiar stores and queues do not leave home.

Europe and the US are entering another closure and those who planned to go on Christmas holidays and celebrate the civil year will have to stay at home in front of the screens. DealTas, which provides an address for Israelis in the United States and Benny Buchnik from the I Need It Facebook group, has prepared a short guide for you on what to do (and what not to do) during the opening shopping days.

To the full article

Be focused and compare prices

Both on a day-to-day basis and in promotions - do not get excited and buy something you have seen - buy what you need, make a preliminary list and allow yourself a slight deviation.

Note that many sites will already offer you "limited time" promotions, to convince you to spend even before the start of the shopping days - do not be tempted, you are likely to find the same products at the same discount if not better.

The promotions started and you found the item you wanted - great!

Register or copy it and search on Google or other sites for the product, check where you will find the best deal, pay attention to associated costs (free or paid shipping, insurance, etc.) and of course local taxes.

Can I buy everything?

And how will it get to the country?

The answer is no, you can not buy everything.

Firstly some products like tobacco, batteries and even perfumes should be avoided, some will be confiscated and others require special flight permits that will increase the shipping cost and may no longer pay you.

In addition, unfortunately during this period fewer stores ship to Israel than in previous years, so companies like DealTas provide an address in the US, ship to Israel and handle logistics, including customs clearance and courier to home. Check which company is right for you and what shipping conditions, promotions and related services cost These will be offered by the company up to 50% of the shipping cost.For those who plan to buy from several stores over time and consolidate deliveries - check the storage costs at each company before you refer your packages to it.

Compatibility with Israel

Electric product for the kitchen or electrical appliances with a motor - check the technical specifications before buying, because there is a likelihood that it will not be able to be used in the country.

Using voltage converters is not good in such cases because it does not convert the frequency - and this may put the item out of use.

Please note that if you are buying an electrical product it is in the range of 110V-220V or 110V-240V - meaning it will also fit the voltage in the country and then you will only need an adapter for a simple plug that changes the physical connection.

Products that must have grounding (kitchen / bathroom / wet environment products, etc.) and that are in direct voltage) It is recommended in any case to replace a plug or cable (if removed) a grounding element is essential and necessary for safety and you can do it in any electrical store or by a qualified electrician.

Payment and foreign currency

Always pay in the currency in which you make the purchase - and this is the intention - in US stores pay in dollars. Do not pay in shekels! Stores charge a high conversion fee to shekels. In every credit company in the country the conversion fee is relatively low - by law, credit companies are required to convert currency A foreign currency for new shekels according to the calculation of the representative rate plus a certain percentage that they advertise.

Keep your credit information

Attempts at phishing and password theft - exploitation of malicious elements.

Remember - · Amazon will never ask you to send them an email with a password / password verification. If you received an email warning you to do so, close the email.

It probably does not exist and behind it are organizations that are interested in getting your credit information.

One recommendation is to take a look at the URL that will be opened to you and check if it is a known and safe site, however, if in doubt - there is no doubt and it is a pity that you will fall into these traps that will require you time and resources to get out.
