POLL | Have you found an ‘honest’ Black Friday deal?

As shoppers across the country brave the rush to participate in Black Friday, many have been disillusioned about “deals” they claim are not specials at all.

Arguably the year’s biggest shopping day, Black Friday is in progress and thousands of eager shoppers are expected to head to stores across the country or move online to nab a deal.

Major retailers have announced their specials, with TimesLIVE readers on the lookout for electronics and deals on food.

However, “Black Friday” and the names of some popular retailers trended on social media on Friday morning as users “unmasked the con” behind some specials.

They claimed stores had inflated prices weeks or even hours before Friday, only to drop them at midnight. A few claimed Black Friday prices were higher than a few weeks ago.

They called for retailers to be “honest”.
