It can also help when the country’s economy is low, and the inflation is rising because of exceptional circumstances, like Brexit or a pandemic for example.<del>Indeed</del><br>Indeed, it can restart a consumption movement : hefty bargains push the consumers to buy. And even if the items are sold at a big discount, stores stil<strong>l </strong>make good profits because of the huge flow of consumers.

More and more British brands use and take advantage of the <strong>B</strong>lack Friday discount. In 2016, it made 6.5 billions £ in the UK, and the trades and sells increased considerably during this period. So creating and generaliz<strong>ing</strong> new huge discounts is interesting for sellers and shops.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Nowadays, many new bargains are emerging in response to the consumer society.</div><div><br></div><div>Firstly, new bargains allow the harmonisation of conditions of competition between companies and societies. From the consumer viewpoint, this expansion of the market provides new products, an increase in supply and, consequently, lower prices for many products like luxuries and high-tech products. According to Andrew Lewis, Senior Lecturer in Retail Operations in Manchester Metropolitan University, Black Friday becomes a miracle solution, a « silver bullet » to the economic downturn during Autumn for retailers. Many companies and societies must get involved in Black Friday to improve and grow their turnover.</div><div><br></div><div>Then, creation of new bargains causes an increase in the economy. Always following Andrew Lewis, Black Friday enables an increase in the economy in a period which the economy is quite low, poor (in September and October), as a result of the Brexit. In the UK, last year’s Black Friday generated 6,5 billions of pounds for trading period.</div><div><br></div><div>Lastly, <strong>the </strong>creation of new bargains is in line with the consumer society. Nevertheless, we learned from this global pandemic period that it is possible to consume local and most of all to consume less. Therefore, <strong>the </strong>creation of new bargains <del>doesn’t </del><strong>does not</strong> meet the needs of today’s society. Indeed, it causes an increase of the economy ; however, it goes against ecology and the ideal of non-consumer society.</div>]]></description>
