The Blue Dot Sale mystery

[Daniel Puchert]

Takealot's big Black Friday mystery

Takealot has been quiet on its Black Friday this year, and it remains to be seen how the South African e-commerce giant will approach the sales event during which one customer spent R376,000 on a single order in 2023.

The online retailer has held five-day sales surrounding Black Friday in 2022 and 2023, with deals going live at one minute past midnight on the day.

The mystery has always been if there would be any actual specials

They have a new strategy I see some prices change on a hour basis depends on time of day you buy {Dynamic pricing practices} nice price gouging customers.

The only mystery is why people still fall for Black Friday specials.

Now if they did a “price adjustment” like Temu.
If there is a price drop within 30 days of any purchase, Yiu can claim the difference back.

Then that would be something.

They waiting to see what Amazon SA does and whether Temu and Shein do Black Friday deals

Black Friday discounts do exist.

For example on software / subscription services, such as VPN services, AV, games or actual applications.
