DESPITE shoppers coming out seeking to take advantage of Black Friday sales across Trinidad and Tobago, some said they were still watching their spending more than ever before.

“It’s tempting to overspend cause you see so much good deals when you going through the store. Things you never even wanted, you see it nice, you see the price and you want to buy it. But I get what I came for because that’s what I can afford, Daniella Joseph from Morvant told Newsday as she left PriceSmart in MovieTowne Port of Spain on November 28.

One manager told Newsday lines at the store began over an hour before opening, with many coming to take advantage of their smart week sale, which runs till November 30. He said the best-seller was the JVC 55’ LED TV priced at $2,399.
