After trying to find the best Black Friday deals, Target customers were furious to see prices unchanged.
Holiday shopping is one of the biggest challenges of the year – especially Black Friday, as it gives shoppers the opportunity to save quite a bit of money.
So when two customers went to Target looking for the best prices, they were shocked to see prices unchanged on Black Friday.
TikTok then responded, explaining its own story about department stores being stingy with their deals.
Viewers agree that stores increase prices before Black Friday to give the impression that you’re getting a discount
TikToker DeJay Downey and her friends went Black Friday shopping at their local Target. However, when they looked at TV prices, they found that nothing had changed.
As Downey’s friend recorded, she slid the Black Friday price tag out of its place, revealing the previous price tag before the deals were supposed to take effect.
Even though the Black Friday price was $649.99, when Downey announced the old price for the TV it was the same price.
Then she went to the second and third TVs, the front and back prices were the same. Her friend then said, “Dude, that wasn’t the deal.”
Viewers of Downey’s viral TikTok were quick to share their experiences of department stores not offering real Black Friday deals, saying: “I see a lot of companies raising prices just to lower prices.” down to the original price and say it’s a sale.”
And, “Last week I bought my mom a trainer purse for Christmas for $145. They marked it up to almost $200 for Black Friday.”
One viewer even mentioned that they don’t even shop on Black Friday anymore for this exact reason, saying: “Black Friday deals used to be SO GOOD. Now I don’t even bother. Even online, they increase the price to ‘get rid of the price’.”
Although Downey was clearly shocked by her discovery, it is unknown whether she ever bought a television. To keep up to date with the best holiday deals, check out our page here.
