Black Friday Turns Pink!
The Holiday Season is fully upon us! Singer Nicki Minaj is helping to turn Black Friday Pink! The traditional start of the holiday shopping season, will once again turn pink on Nov. 26 as CompUSA and TigerDirect turn the shopping extravaganza into a charitable free-for-all for the fourth consecutive year. The consumer electronics and technology retailers expect to raise more than $100,000 from a portion of online sales and from customer donations to Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the world’s largest breast cancer organization.
Customers can get involved in the following ways:
·Donate $1, $5, $10 or $20, on top of their in-store or online purchase to Komen for the Cure.
·Watch a live 12-hour Webcast that will be available on www.CompUSA.com and www.tigerdirect.com, from noon to midnight. During the live webcast, limited quantities of electornics and other products will be sold at 50 percent off list price. The full proceeds from the sales will go directly to Komen. Sponsors of the Webcast include Intel, AMD, Lenovo, Logitech, I-INC, Canon, CA, Toshiba, TRENDnet, Garmin, Targus, Ultra, Samsung and Sony.
·View inspiring breast cancer survivor videos and educational segments during the webcast.
The 12-hour Webcast will feature an interview (via Skype) with Nicki Minaj and her “Your Love” video from her debut album, Pink Friday, breast cancer survivor interviews, informational videos and the sale of thousands of products at 50 percent off, with 100 percent of the proceeds donated to Komen. The products go “live” at different times during the Webcast and are sold to the first people who call in. The online products being offered at 50 percent off will not be available in stores, but in celebration of Pink Friday, all of CompUSA and TigerDirect’s retail locations throughout the country and in Puerto Rico will go “pink” with décor, bags, in-store donations and more.
