The Christmas sale has started – Novinky.cz

Globus hypermarkets offer several thousand products across the range with a discount of up to 70 percent from Monday. According to company spokeswoman Aneta Turnovská, the amount of discounts varies for individual sales categories. According to her, the sale will last until the last week of January.

According to its director Pavel Hradec, the individual sellers are gradually starting sales in the Galerie Harfa shopping center in Prague after the Christmas holidays. “They will then be fully operational in January and will last until the end of January. Due to pandemic waves and restrictions in 2020 and 2021, goods may sell out faster, and discount offers may change over time,” he said.

According to Hradec, the limited operation of the O2 arena, which is adjacent to the center and brought participants to the shopping arcade, is now being signed by Galerie Harfa.

Post-Christmas discounts have also started at Tesco stores, mainly for Christmas decorations, household items and wrapping papers. According to Tesco’s consumer goods manager for the Czech Republic and Slovakia, Aleš Pavlík, people buy these products up to 75 percent cheaper. Customers will also buy selected clothing, shoes and accessories from the private F&F brand at lower prices. From Tuesday, according to Pavlík, some toys will have a 30 percent discount, and from January 5, Tesco will offer discounts of up to 50 percent on selected goods from the electrical category.

Lack of goods is expected

According to the director of the center, Jan Procházka, traders at the Freeport Fashion Outlet in Hatí near Znojmo offered discounts for the first time this year since the last pre-Christmas weekend. According to him, the reason for the earlier launch of sales was the high surpluses of stored goods due to the pandemic.

“We expect that traders will continue to get rid of stocks in the coming weeks. On the other hand, a partial shortage of some goods can be expected next year, due to problems with the production and transport of goods, especially from Asia,” said Procházka.

The IKEA furniture chain launched a winter sale on December 15, lasting until January 13 or until stocks run out. According to information on the company’s website, all IKEA department stores were lightly this morning, and capacity was far from full.
