The National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC) warns consumers about misleading Black Friday offers and impulsive buying. They advise checking prices, merchant identities, and final costs before purchasing. ANPC emphasizes that discounts should be compared to the lowest price in the last 30 days and that urgency in offers does not negate consumer rights. Recommendations include setting a budget, making a shopping list, reading return policies, and calculating total costs before confirming orders. ANPC highlights that promotional messages can vary in duration and urges consumers to make informed decisions rather than succumbing to pressure from sales campaigns.
