The Black Friday this year is bet good results on both sides of the counter: as customers expect the date to buy products with discounts that can reach 80% of the original value, the expectation of retailers is more use prices into account as attractive to minimize the difficult scenario of the Brazilian retail.

About 80% of online shoppers plan to buy on the day which this year takes place on the 27th of November, according to a survey released by E-bit / Buscapé. The Brazilian Association of Electronic Commerce (ABComm) estimates that the 2015 edition of Black Friday should have sales of $ 1.31 billion, up 18% compared to last year.

The traditional American practice of offering discounts on the Friday after Thanksgiving holiday was incorporated by Brazilian trade a few years ago, and ever more competitive. Some stores plan their inventories to begin sales with discounts at the beginning of the month. Other sites promise lower prices for a week. Check out some tips for making the prices without falling into cold:

1 - Search for prices before the date and at various sites

To find out if an item is the same discounted prices search the online stores before Black Friday, or the period in which discounts will be offered. So you could have a real basis for comparison of prices. Fraudulent shops can advertise discounted items without changing the value of the products. Also remember to calculate the freight delivery to whether the purchase will come out even cheaper.

2 - Have an idea you want to buy

Not to become a trap, the Black Friday should be seized as an opportunity to get that product that you are eyeing for some time, and will now find at a lower price. Of course you may come across items at extremely attractive prices and worthwhile buy. Just make sure that they are within your budget.

3 - Consumer rights also apply on Black Friday

The Consumer Protection Code is applicable on purchases made over the Internet, and required when the client and the supplier is established in Brazil. If the product delivered is not promised, you can request a replacement or replacement of the item. The customer may also regret the purchase. In these cases, the consumer has up to seven days from the receipt of goods to request a refund of the amount paid and return the product.

4 - Read the site and talk with the company

Many questions can be answered with a careful reading of the site. It may be listed as information exchange and product returns policy, delivery time, payment, among others. You can also contact the store in advance to ask questions before buying. It may be that due to the large volume of consumers seeking care during Black Friday you have to wait a while to get an answer, but, anyway, the company has an obligation to answer questions and provide assistance.

5 - Keep receipts, emails, invoices and documents relating to the purchase

Save all purchase data. Site name, which acquired, value, payment, purchase protocol number or order, order confirmation, e-mails proving the purchase, everything can and should be saved, whether in electronic or print medium. And, most importantly, requires invoice. If you have any problems while purchasing or even with the product, will be much easier to prove the transaction and resolve the impediment.

6 - Avoid the peak hours and do not waste time

When you find a product you are interested, do not waste time. As there is a lot of traffic on the sites during the promotion, you run the risk of losing stocks. This is another reason why planning is so important: already knowing what you want and how much you spend, you will have more time to meet the promotion of interest. Similarly, avoid peak hours, which are usually midnight, noon and after 18h. Thus, the chance of you face congested sites or trouble completing the purchase is much lower.
