Sale in Finland, or What to buy in the season of discounts?

In many European countries, at the end of the seasons or before the big holidays, a sign appears almost at every store, which reads: "Alennus", "Sale", that is, "Sale". Finland is no exception. Sale here is arranged most often, and prices are much lower than in other countries.

Particular attention should be paid to the so-called "Crazy days", arranged twice a year by the Stockmann department store. In October and April each year Stockmann conducts its own sales. These days, thousands of buyers who want to buy good quality goods at a reduced price, visit this huge store.

Another sales network that sells in Finland is Sokos. Her favorite method is the sale of "3 + 1", that is, a person, having bought three things, the fourth receives a gift.

Share the 2 biggest season of discounts in Finland: winter and summer.

The winter season starts right after the end of the Christmas holidays, around December 27-28. There is definitely no established day for the beginning of the season of discounts - each store chooses a date on its own. Many shops, for marketing purposes, begin to understate prices and call, therefore, more buyers, as early as mid-December. This is especially true of the New Year and Christmas decorations, the items of the festive table setting, Christmas decorations and toys. Of course, the discount can not be huge, but, as they say: a trifle, but nice. Although discounts on sales days in Finland sometimes reach 30 percent.

It is also not bad to save in this period on perfumes and cosmetics. Often, prices for them are reduced to 50 percent.

On what the weather is worth in the winter, clothing sales depend greatly. In Finland, during a snowy, frosty, cold winter with discounts, you can buy light, demi-season clothes and, conversely, in a rainy season, prices for warm clothes, winter jackets, downhill skis and snowboards are significantly reduced.

As for technology, it can not be purchased with discounts, since new electronics, computer equipment, household appliances, photo-, video- and audio equipment here are much more expensive than in Russia. But last year's models can be bought at fairly affordable prices.

The summer season of sales begins before the religious holiday of Juhannus in late June. At a time when in Finland sales, modern women of fashion from many corners of the world fly here to buy clothes from summer collections, jewelry, souvenirs, sports goods and much more.

In addition to regular annual discount periods, Finnish stores arrange any promotions and special offers. Especially often it is possible to meet sales in shops of footwear, clothes and accessories. On the threshold of getting a new product, the owners take off the price, in order to quickly sell off the leftovers. Although recently many shops have become cunning and announce discounts and promotions where they do not actually exist. But basically, if "Ale" "Alennus" or "Tarjous" posters on the shop doors or in the showcase boldly go inside, you will be lucky today and you will get excellent quality goods at a reduced price.

Also frequent is the sale in Finland at the closing of the store, moving or before repair.
