'You're A Mean One, Mr. Glitch': Black Friday Shoppers Crash Stores' Websites

Description

Business Insider reports Walmart, Lowe's, and J.Crew are just a few of the retailers with tech woes on Black Friday. Shoppers encountered glitching and crashing websites as the holiday shopping season kicked off. The core problem seems to be that many retailers were unprepared for the increased traffic. Online shopping spend is expected to jump 33%, compared to 2017. In-store sales are only expected to grow by 1.9%. Shoppers spent $2.4 billion online on Wednesday, up a whopping 31.8% from 2017. Website outages hurt brands' reputations and can lose millions in sales in just a few minutes.

Hundreds of Hungry Shoppers Rush for Black Friday Sales in Dallas

Black Friday sales kicked off early at 6 PM local time on Thursday at a Walmart superstore in Dallas, to the delight of hundreds of shoppers looking to bag themselves a bargain. With prices slashed up to 70 percent, many shoppers rushed to get their hands on a new flat screen TV and other electronics, Black Friday is a tradition which originated in the US and has been replicated overseas. The day, which takes place after the Thanksgiving holiday, is usually the busiest shopping day of the year in the US, with large crowds common. Violence, some of which has resulted in fatalities, has occurred in the past as a result of crowds clamouring to buy items at steep discounts. Black Friday sales in 2015 neared $15 billion in the US, and $3 billion of those sales came from the internet.
