On this occasion, the Black Friday will be on November 25, the last Friday of this month of November. In the case of Ecuador, certain businesses extend the offers during the weekend or even the entire week, that is, from the 21st to the 27th of this month.
What is the ideal time to buy?
The specialized portal Profesional Review details that the worst hours to shop online on Black Friday are from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and from 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. both the hours in which there are more people browsing their devices to buy. In these time slots, in addition, you may find yourself out of stock of certain products and it is likely that the websites of some businesses will go down or experience slowness due to the high number of visitors.
Therefore, it is advisable to make purchases very early, between 03:00 and 07:00, when most are sleeping. From then on, people are waking up and things are getting more and more complicated. In any case, it is preferable do the shopping before 10:00.
Also, this is not the only date with sales, the offers of Cyber Monday, like those of Black Friday offer discounts on televisions, computers, cameras, cell phones, game consoles, clothing and much more. Immediately after Black Friday comes Cyber Monday, which falls on the first Monday after Thanksgiving, and Black Friday, will be next Monday, November 28, 2022.
