Black Friday Bargains on the Horizon
If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your kitchen gear, there’s good news. Black Friday, one of the biggest retail events of the year, takes place this year on Friday, November 28th, followed by Cyber Monday on December 1st.
While it’s not a public holiday in Ireland, the shopping event has grown enormously in recent years, with retailers offering discounts both in-store and online; often across the entire weekend. From electronics to homeware and kitchen gadgets, there’s no better time to pick up a few practical bargains that will see you through the winter season.
A soup maker, in particular, is one investment that will pay dividends long after the Black Friday sales are over. Not only does it make healthy eating easy, but it also delivers that simple satisfaction of homemade food, rich in flavour and free from those unnecessary perservatives/additives.
