购物狂的必备知识-英语点津

你是购物狂吗？要当一个兢兢业业诚诚恳恳的购物狂，这些问题你必须知道：

1. 购物狂最喜欢的两个日子是？

Black Friday（感恩节后第二天）和Boxing Day（圣诞后第二天），这两天都是销售旺季。

Black Friday标志着Christmas Shopping Season的开始：

购物狂的必备知识

On this day, many retailers open very early, often at 4 a.m., or earlier, and offer promotional sales to kick off the shopping season. Black Friday is not actually a holiday, but many employers give their employees the day off, increasing the number of potential shoppers.

这一天商店开门都会很早，凌晨四点就会开门，这天虽然不是法定节假日，但很多公司都会在这一天放假，所以购物的人很多。

Boxing Day中文里称之为节礼日，这一天商家都会打折，所以是购物的好日子：

In Britain, Canada, New Zealand and some states of Australia, Boxing Day is primarily known as a shopping holiday, much like the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. It is a time where shops have sales, often with dramatic price decreases. For many merchants, Boxing Day has become the day of the year with the greatest revenue.

在英国、加拿大、新西兰和澳大利亚一些地区，节礼日的意义跟美国的Black Friday一样，是名副其实的购物日，这一天各处都有打折，很多地方的商家在这一天的收益几乎是全年最多的。

2. 购物之后，除了商品，还有什么不能忘记？

不要忘拿receipt（收据），上面通常会印有“Exchange and refund policy：90 day exchange，30 day refund with tags（90天之内可以更换商品，30天内保留价签可以退货）”。

3. 除了节假日打折，还有哪些省钱妙招？

节假日之外我们还可以用到coupon（优惠券）；一般商场里平时也会有降价出售以吸引人气的商品，这种称为loss leader。超市或者便利店里还有送积分的活动，这种叫做frequent shopper program，买的多，积分多，一般就会有折扣或者礼物。
