Somtimes I wonder if the deals around or after Christmas are actually a good deal or if all the hype is just a marketing scam. Everywhere you go you see “Christmas special!” or “boxing day blowout sale!” or “black friday deals!” and so on. Are these actually good deals or just a way to get you to come buy stuff? I am writing this article as a question and is open for comment. Feel free to post what you think about these “special deals” around Christmas time. This is question on my mind for a while now because I would like to buy a new laptop and not sure whether to just buy now or wait till close to christmas or after Christmas.
