American shopping is characterized by frequent sales and flexible discounts. Major sales in the US are timed to coincide with the holidays. Americans themselves traditionally use various discounts and bonuses. They rarely make purchases with the full price of the item. Wealthy Americans enjoy shopping for cheap goods. In this country, it is customary to make profitable deals and save on shopping. When visiting shopping centers in the United States, you should pay attention to signs with the words "Final sale", "out of business sale", etc.
What promotions are held by stores
The most ambitious promotions with price reductions take place on holidays. They start right after Thanksgiving and make their way to the high by Christmas. Price reductions also take place in January, when discounts in some stores are 80%. Items for $ 30-40 on sale can be bought for $ 5.
Discount season is a great opportunity to make a lot of new purchases. At this time, a mass of people rush to the shopping centers of the country. They create long lines and fuss. Many retail outlets open sidewalk sales, displaying their wares on the street. Such promotions are designated "sidewalk sale".
Sales in the United States are organized for a variety of reasons: national holidays, marketing plans of the distribution network, etc. Some brand stores organize promotions in connection with the release of a new model of a popular product.
Major sales
Large sales provide consumers with an excellent opportunity to profitably purchase any goods: clothes, home textiles, decor items, shoes, etc. Some promotions are timed to coincide with the main holidays of the country, others are held in connection with religious events. Many Americans prefer to place orders from online stores, which also offer great discounts.
The national holiday that kicks off a string of discounts is Martin Luther King Day (the third Monday in January). The largest US megamalls offer good discounts on most products. The next holiday, which is accompanied by lucrative promotions, is Valentine's Day, February 14. Sales organized by stores around the world are timed to coincide with this date. Sales in the United States also go on President's Day, St. Patrick's Day, April Fool's Day, etc. One of the main holidays for Christians, Easter, is also marked by global sales across the country.
A popular campaign in the United States is "Destruction of Collections", when clothes and shoes from last season's collections are sold at low prices.
It is very interesting that in the USA there is a concept of refund - the return of unwanted goods. This service exists for those who succumbed to the excitement and purchased a thing that they do not need. Then, after the purchase, this product can be returned to the store without explanation.
