Did you miss the sales period to make your purchases cheaply?
Thanks to "private sales" or "flash sales", you can do business all year round.
Escaping from the category of transactions regulated by the Commercial Code, these promotional operations enjoy greater freedom of implementation… under certain conditions.
One-off operations
If traders no longer need to wait for annual sales to destock their goods, they still need to proceed sparingly and in small groups.
By definition, “private sales” must indeed be one-off, offered for a short period of time and be limited to a restricted clientele.
The Internet therefore offers an ideal setting for these “behind closed doors” operations: only Internet users registered in the listing of the organizing sites can participate, subject to having registered in advance for the sale concerned.
But real businesses can also organize such sales, provided that this restrictive nature is respected.
In practice, these promotions thus very often take the form of a privilege reserved for holders of retailer loyalty cards.
Where to find these private sales?
If the virtual private sales sites are legion, it is often through the Web that it is also necessary to go to unearth the physical operations.
For example, you can subscribe to an alerting service that will inform you of transactions that interest you by region or by brand.
For those allergic to the Internet, word of mouth between serial shoppers remains the solution, knowing that sponsorship often allows informants to obtain preferential discounts and other advantages.
