Think Before You Click – Let Us Share Your Black Friday Bargains

Black Friday isn’t an Irish tradition but seasonal spending is nothing new to us. Traditionally, the 8th of December was a busy shopping day in towns and cities.

And while some see online shopping as competition for local business, we believe the Internet offers opportunities for everyone.

As an Irish SME, we think people should spend wisely and think before they click. That's why we're going to publish a Black Friday Bulletin featuring Irish SMEs.

Would you like us to list your Black Friday Bargains? You don't even have to be a Blacknight customer. Click here to find out more.

Tis gas that China does best out of all this Christmas spending and the feckers don't even celebrate it. I'd love to know how many containerloads of consumer electronics, toys and other gimmicks that are destined for the bin shortly after unwrapping are making their way over to us right now.

If you buy unlocal you are probably helping the Chinese communist party get a step closer to world domination

That's what I think :) 

“It’s the thought that counts”: that’s a cliché when it comes to gifts, but it’s never been truer. Critics of online shopping say that its ease and convenience facilitate thoughtless consumerism. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

We’d like to encourage consumers to think before they click. Think about the quality and sustainability of what you buy online. Think about supporting local businesses and Irish jobs and communities. Think about supporting companies who are committed to ethical trading and environmental responsibility. Think about what these values mean to you, and to the person for whom you are buying.
