Make a list beforehand

For this Black Friday, Jumia is offering over 4 million products to Nigerians for purchase. And every one of these products is discounted. If you do not want to be confused and spend on what you do not really want, you should make a shopping list beforehand. This is because once the deals start to appear, it's easy to get swept up in the hype and go on a spending spree.

Check the Ads

You can find ads of Jumia Black Friday both offline and online. Hence, do not hesitate to take a look at the ads and make a plan for which items you want to buy. Because stock can run out fast on the best deals, prioritise your purchases and plan what you want to buy and when it will be available.

Make a budget

Getting great deals is a positive thing, but overextending yourself financially is not. If money is tight, an important feature of your Black Friday planning should be making a budget and ensuring that you stick to it. Budgeting might not be the most fun or glamorous thing to do but will help you out enormously in the long run.

Use social media

If you want real-time updates on Black Friday sales and deals, the best place to go is social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. You can follow Jumia on Twitter to find bargains on household items, video games, consoles, and accessories.

Check out immediately

The turnover rate during Black Friday is very high. Before the flip of your fingers, the product with a fantastic deal would have been sold out. Hence, as soon as you decide to buy a product or book a hotel, try to check out and pay immediately. This is to avoid stories that touch!
