Thousands have flocked to brick and mortar stores across the country to take advantage OF one of the biggest sales on the calendar.
Black Friday sales traditionally falls the day after the American holiday of thanksgiving and has quickly cemented itself as a major feature of the Australian sale calendar.
The sales have kicked off earlier than ever before this year, with online retailers slashing prices from midweek despite thanksgiving being celebrated on Thursday, November 23, and the annual sale not due to start until the Friday.
In what is considered a rare sight these days at the nation’s major shopping centres, thousands of savvy shoppers flocked to the retail stores in Melbourne and Sydney to make the most of the bargains.
Photographs from Bourke Street Mall in Melbourne show crowds packed onto the footpath as they rush to make the most of the weekend deals.
It’s no wonder people are making the most of sales with Christmas just over five weeks away and inflation putting pressure on everyone’s budgets.
However, it won’t be the last chance for shoppers to score a discount however with Cyber Monday just around the corner starting November 27.
