With supply chains at the breaking point and retailers increasingly interested in stretching out the season, Black Friday is, in many ways, a throwback event. But for bargain hunters, that doesn’t make it any less exciting.
Black Friday 2020 was something of a non-event, as the pandemic kept many people at home—and stopped many retailers from putting their best deals in brick-and-mortar stores, to cut back on crowding and protect their employees. This year, you’re likely to find bigger crowds and better deals. But don’t expect the inventories to be as robust as you’re used to.
