Black Friday is OUT!
The perception of getting a "great deal" is what drives Black Friday, but research has shown that many of the advertised discounts aren't as good as they might appear. Retailers often inflate original prices to make discounts seem better, or they offer lower-quality versions of popular products specifically for Black Friday. What seems like a good deal can often lead to disappointment when you realise the deal wasn't as great as you thought.

In recent years, a growing movement started by Holly Tucker and
Holly & Co, has emerged that seeks to counterbalance the consumerism of Black Friday—introducing a more positive alternative called
Colour Friday. Colour Friday is about celebrating creativity, supporting ethical practices, and finding joy in meaningful consumption.
As the holiday season approaches, you have a choice to make. Will you dive head-first into the chaos of Black Friday, or will you seek out the warmth, joy, and community focus of Colour Friday? The allure of a good deal might be tempting, but the satisfaction of shopping with intention and purpose can bring a joy that lasts far beyond the holiday season. Colour Friday reminds us that our spending power can be a force for good, making each purchase a meaningful decision rather than just another tick on a shopping list.
This year, consider choosing colour, creativity, and conscious choices. After all, there's more to life—and the holidays—than the black-and-white deals of Black Friday. Support the little guy!!
