One day after Thanksgiving in the United States, the most fervent users of offers for the already well-known Black Friday they were planted at dawn in the country's technology stores to be the first to enter them and get the best deals.

Obviously this can remind us of the queues that were made and I think are still being done today for sales in Spain or similar in other countries. However, not all users join to queue, much less having the internet in our hands.

Queues are not a problem for stores, quite the opposite, as they wait for the first customers who are most eager to get the best offers in the store. Obviously a good marketing campaign plays a crucial role in all this and without a doubt, shops and especially large stores know the steps to follow well. In the case of Spain, Black Friday has arrived with force and everyone is joining the bandwagon of offers, but in my case I have not seen queues in large stores to enter the first.

It is true that shops and large supermarkets in the United States, a country where this day of discounts is an ingrained tradition, have been able to export the idea and other countries have welcomed it delightedly in these times. Taking a good look and buying what we have been waiting for for a long time may be a little cheaper for the user today, but let's not go crazy and browse the prices in various places before launching the purchase can be wise advice.
