What is El Buen Fin 2024?

The El Buen Fin 2024 event is similar to what we know as Black Friday, very famous throughout the United States.

However, El Buen Fin 2024 is held in Mexico and has its own unique characteristics. This event was first held in 2011 as an initiative of the CCE (Business Coordinating Council), in conjunction with the federal government.

During this long weekend, thousands of businesses and companies across the country offered discounts and special promotions on a wide variety of products and services, from appliances and technology to clothing and travel.

The event was well received by Mexican consumers, who took advantage of the offers and discounts to make Christmas purchases and advance their end-of-year purchases.

Furthermore, “El Buen Fin” has continued to grow year after year, with the participation of an increasing number of companies and a greater diversity of products and services offered.

When will Buen Fin 2024 be celebrated?

If you are one of the people who is already planning for Buen Fin 2024, or a company that needs to prepare for this long-awaited time of year, you no longer have to worry.

The Mexican federal government and the private business sector recently announced that the event will take place from November 17 to 20, bringing together

promotions and discounts on thousands of products and stores across the country.

And in this edition, the government and businesses are already expecting an increase in sales, compared to the previous year, when sales already exceeded 100 million pesos.

How to save for the Buen Fin?

If you, like many other people, are looking for a way to save money and buy everything you need during Buen Fin 2024, we have you covered.

This is the time of year when Mexican citizens take advantage of the opportunity to buy everything they need at a lower price than is common in the market.

It is an opportunity to take advantage of discounts and promotions in various stores, and in 2024, this event will take place from November 17 to 20. Let's take a look at the tips:

1 – Make a list

The best thing you can do months before Buen Fin 2024 arrives is to create a list of everything you need and want.

It's like a wish list, but it's also important to keep in mind that spending behavior can hurt your budget, even if you've saved up for it.

So ask yourself questions like, “Do I really need it?”, “Is it worth it?”, “How often will I use this product?” and “What do I need it for?” These questions will help you understand whether it’s a want or a need.

2 – Research the prices

It's common for prices to drop during the Buen Fin period, but you need to be vigilant to make sure you're not being ripped off, with prices going up before the event and then going down during it.

This is a very common practice and if you don't do your research and search ahead of time, you could end up paying full price even with a “deal.”

Also, check if prices vary between physical stores and e-commerce sites, spend time on these activities and save more.

3 – Take it easy

El Buen Fin lasts four days, so there's no need to rush into buying things unless you're afraid they'll sell out, but if you're prepared for the event you won't be as stressed as if you didn't plan ahead.

Instead of rushing to buy everything at once, enjoy the shopping process. Take the time to explore different stores, compare products and find the best deals.

Remember that the goal is to save money while getting what you need or want. Don't get carried away by the excitement of deals and discounts. Take your time to evaluate whether you really need or want the item in question.
