NEW YORK (PRWEB) November 07, 2022
Nearly 70% of consumers might sit out this season’s biggest holiday shopping day according to a new Black Friday survey conducted by PissedConsumer.com. That includes 7% of those surveyed who previously shopped on Black Friday.
While the ongoing pandemic had minimal impact on planned shopping decisions at the time of the survey, inflation was cited by 8% of respondents as a reason they won’t shop this Black Friday.
The survey also showed a slight preference for Cyber Monday deals over Black Friday sales, showing more spread-out holiday shopping could also partly explain the shift in expected buying habits.
"Online reviews are expected to have a big impact on Black Friday shopping," said Michael Podolsky, CEO of PissedConsumer.com. "Our survey shows 85% of shoppers intend to read online reviews before making their Black Friday purchases, with 82% saying negative reviews impact their buying decisions. In addition, to review sites like PissedConsumer.com, shoppers plan to check reviews on search engines, major retail sites, company websites, and social media."
