Support local businesses
As a customer, we need to support small businesses and SMEs, where there are small entrepreneurs who are enthusiastic and eager to take their business forward. Of course, that doesn’t mean we don’t pay attention to other vital factors such as money and whether you’re environmentally conscious.
For example, if you walk into a small designer clothing store, it’s always a good idea to ask yourself if it’s sustainable fashion that uses 100% recycled cotton or another textile product. Contrary to popular Black Friday thinking, you can also get deals at small businesses and stores on clothing, electronics, and really anything else that comes to mind. If you’re not sure where to shop on Black Friday, this is a great way to start looking for discounts and supporting those in need.

The reviews you find online are always helpful, especially for spotting honest sellers from those who aren’t. That’s why, in addition to buying responsibly during Black Friday, we must also be responsible when choosing where we go to buy.
There are online review sites like Reviewsbird.es where you can read all kinds of reviews about different brands as well as how they treated you in a store or how good their products are. The ideal would be to support small eco-responsible businesses during Black Friday, but it is still practical to read the opinions on the internet to find out if the products they sell to the public are indeed good and practical for us.
Buy only what is necessary
Finally, if the rest has already become clear to you, then you should keep in mind that you only buy what you consider necessary. A good tip is to make a list of things you need at the beginning of the year but are not in a rush to buy.
