Experts named the most unsuccessful purchases of Russians at sales

About a quarter of Russians make spontaneous purchases during sales, and about the same number believe that the discounts are real. The rest follow seasonal sales and plan purchases in advance. This was reported on November 29 by "Gazeta.Ru", referring to the study of the social network "Odnoklassniki" and fintech company "YuMoneu".

About 45% of those surveyed plan to shop on Black Friday. The majority also prefer to look for what they want on marketplaces. Less than a third of respondents go to shopping centers.

Experts also found out that the most unsuccessful purchases made at discounts were underwear and consumer electronics. The second place is occupied by clothes and shoes of famous brands, which were purchased only because of big discounts.

The most frequent purchases during the sales are clothes, shoes, accessories, as well as electronics and household appliances.

Earlier, on November 28, Rosselkhozbank conducted a survey, according to which about 50% of Russians are going to buy goods on Black Friday. At the same time, 41% of respondents said that they will first look at what stores will offer during this period, and 12% plan to refrain from participating in the promotions.

Before that, on November 8, in the Post Bank said that during the sales fraudsters are activated. As specified in the credit organization, the attackers, offering the most profitable offers, transfer users to third-party sites. As a result, buyers can be left not only without money and goods, but also with loans.
