Choice Managing Editor Margaret Rafferty says to “be prepared” to check costs for Boxing Day gross sales and do a little analysis as some reductions are “not actual bargains”.
“Be prepared and do some research, so often time you’ll see a product deeply discounted, that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a bargain,” Ms Rafferty informed Sky News Australia.
“We often find in our lab testing that the cheaper products out-perform the more expensive ones.
“It’s very easy to be caught up in the hype of a big discount and think you’re getting a deal when you’re not.”
