“Babe, wake up. Black Friday is f*cking us...”
Your Black Friday bounty may not be as awesome as you think. Big brands strategized months ahead to squeeze every penny out of your purchase. Often, that means designing lower quality things, so they get the same profit at the “discounted” price. Typically, lower quality things are made from lower quality bad materials and/or in bad working conditions for laborers. Aaand there’s the whole “encouraging overconsumption” thing…
So, F*CK BLACK FRIDAY
The things we sell aren’t less valuable because its 12:01 AM – they’re high-quality pieces by global brands, designers and makers – HUMANS making better things in better ways and meant to last.
