Jumia recorded a 7.5 million website visitors during the last 2016 Black Friday, but this is expected to be bigger.

Tips on How to get the benefit from the Jumia Black Friday

First things first: Let’s assume you have never shopped on Jumia. Get a Jumia account and don’t forget the details. In fact, go through the site and see stuff you may need first.
Download the Jumia app: If you will not do anything else for the Black Friday, try as much as possible and get the Jumia app because of the many benefits you will get. This includes special vouchers and access to flash sales in addition to instant push notifications when deals go live.
Get ready for flash sales: It is not every product that will go for very cheap price (they would go for cheap but not very cheap), but during the Jumia Black Friday flash sales is when you will get them very cheap. The bad news is you don’t know the time for flash sales so you need to keep your eyes open. One more thing, get the Flash Sales Coupon To get this too, you need to be alert!
Find products that have good reviews or from trusted sellers: Not everything that sells very cheap is a good bargain. Hence before you go on that shopping spree, know the product you are buying and ensure that you pick the right one. Not all products have reviews, but you may get to see the sellers and see their other dealings on the site.
The earlier the better: Have a list now if possible, and once it begins, try and check to see what you can lay your hands on (the needful ones) as soon as you can. The best deals are always the first to finish, so you need to try shopping early enough.
Take your time: Don’t spend too quickly without researching other dealers that have similar products. A single product sold by different dealers may have different cuts in prices. Look before you leap. It is very important.
Be careful how you spend: Many people are going to spend monies they don’t have or monies for useful things on things they may not even need. You need to watch the way you spend so as not to go beyond your budget.

Things You Should Go For

At the end of the day, you can never go for what you don’t have money for, but common, its Black Friday baby! So here are some things you can go for:

Prices: Things that offer a deal of as much as 80 or 90 percent discount. The only thing here is that not everything that offers this massive cut is good to go for. Hence, go for value over price cut.
Needs: There are two needs here, the things you need for your use and the things you need to make some cool readily available cash. If Infinix decides it will sell its 100 K phone for 20, or Samsung wants to give 80% cut on its TV, you know that is a good deal. You can buy those not necessarily to use, but to resell. However, if you want things to use, you can as well check.
Products: Personally, I will not advise you to go for shirts or shoes or some of those things that on a normal day don’t cost more than 10K. You may get a cut of 80 percent, but when you go for a thing of 80 thousand naira that gives you 60 percent cut, now that is a good deal. What I am saying is don’t go for petty stuff, unless you really need them.

Keep some good cash: This may be your opportunity to shop for Christmas, so try as much as possible to keep as much cash as you are willing to spend.
Other things: It is not only products that you get to benefit from as there will also be cuts on other services rendered by Jumia including on Jumia Travel and Jumia Food.

Suggested deals

Laptops: It is a good time to get yourself a laptop if you don’t have one, or change if yours is old. Look out for a laptop with good specs and price before putting in your money.
Mobile phones and Tablets: These are some of the popular things that would sell well. Just be careful the one you go for.
TV, Sound System, and other electronics.
Children wear: I know I said to avoid things that are cheap, but Christmas is around the corner and the kids need stuff like these, why not hit the bargain and forget about going to the market?
Flight Tickets: If you are travelling, it will be wise to take the chance and benefit from Jumia Travel. You may find out that you may get an unbelievable deal. It is worth checking.
Gaming Console: If you are a gamer, this is one of your best times to pick a very good console and maybe other gaming stuff you may need.
Furniture
