Lack of financial discipline around Black Friday can easily lead to financial woes especially in these uncertain times. Elzita Beukes, FNB Communications Manager says, you can avoid getting into financial distress over Black Friday by heeding the below tips:<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes we are lured by the excitement as well as the appealing marketing and therefore tempted to buy goods simply because we are told that the prices have been reduced. However, it\u2019s important to understand whether there has been any substantial reduction in the price of the item you wish to buy. The easiest way to determine if there has been a decrease is to track the price over a period of time. Do not be tempted to spend excessively, and if you have a list of what you want to buy and a budget, stick to it. Just because something is labeled cheaper on Black Friday doesn\u2019t always mean that it\u2019s a worthwhile buy,\u201d concludes Beukes.<\/p>\n
