Kungani ulubiza ngolwesihlanu Olumnyama——Ngawo wonke umsebenzi wokuthenga owenziwa ngoLwesihlanu ngemva koSuku Lokubonga, usuku lwaba olunye lwezinsuku ezinenzuzo kakhulu zonyaka kubathengisi namabhizinisi.

Ngenxa yokuthi ababhali bama-akhawunti basebenzisa umnyama ukuze babonise inzuzo lapho berekhoda okufakwe ezincwadini zosuku ngalunye (futhi okubomvu ukukhombisa ukulahlekelwa), lolu suku lwaziwa ngokuthi uLwesihlanu Olumnyama—noma usuku lapho abathengisi bebona amaholo amahle kanye nenzuzo “kumnyama.”

Ngo-2020, iBlack Friday ayikhanselwanga, kodwa ulwazi lokuthenga seluhluke kakhulu kunangaphambili. Uma usahlela ukuthenga esitolo kulo nyaka, uzofuna ukushayela futhi uqinisekise ukuthi zizovulwa ngosuku olukhulu. Njengomthetho ojwayelekile, ungacabanga ukuthi izitolo eziningi zizoba nezimiso zokuphepha ze-COVID-19 kanye nemikhawulo yokuthi bangaki abantu abazovunyelwa esakhiweni ngesikhathi esisodwa, ngakho-ke imigqa engapheli kanye nezitembu zokungena emnyango kuzoba yinto yesikhathi eside. okwedlule. (Njengenjwayelo, qiniseka ukuthi uthenga ngokuphepha futhi ugqoke imaski!)

Sekushiwo lokho, emasontweni ambalwa edlule sibone ukuthi izitolo eziningi zicindezela ukuthengisa kwazo okuku-inthanethi kwe-Black Friday kunangaphambili - futhi ziyenzeka ngokoqobo njengamanje.
