Early sales events will play second fiddle to this year's main Black Friday deals, say predictions from both consumers and FatWallet.com.
BELOIT, Wis., Oct. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- FatWallet.com, where millions of deal hunters go to stack coupons with cash back, predicts a record 50,000 advertised deals from 2015 Black Friday ads (45,000 in 2014) featuring some of the lowest prices of the year for Thanksgiving holiday weekend. With the majority of new smartphones, tablets, streaming devices and in-demand tech released weeks ahead of previous years, early November sales will be ripe for competitive discounting in advance of Black Friday. However, 4 to 1, holiday shoppers are expecting major retailers to offer their deepest savings during prime Black Friday events vs. the early sales, 2 to 1 over Cyber Monday deals (2015 Holiday Survey). This despite 42% of consumers that disagree with stores opening on Thanksgiving Day.
