According to Lao Dong Newspaper reporters at 8:00 p.m. on January 10 at Big C Thang Long supermarket (Hanoi), the number of people rushing to shop for Tet was very large, the entrance and payment area were almost full.
At this time, most supermarkets and shopping malls are always full of goods, launching many promotions, discounts, and giving Tet gifts to customers who buy large quantities of goods. At the same time, they can extend sales hours to 22 - 23 hours.
Ms. Nguyen Thanh Mai (Cau Giay District, Hanoi) shared: "Work is very busy near Tet so I take advantage of shopping early. This not only helps me save time but also gives me the opportunity to choose the items I like at preferential prices. However, I am quite surprised to see that here, people are also flocking to buy things."
Mr. Nguyen Van Duy (Cau Giay district, Hanoi) also said that buying Tet items early will help consumers have more choices.
"Buying Tet items early also has the advantage of being able to choose discounted items, brands that are offering promotions to save money. But it's quite busy near Tet, and with increased purchasing power, goods are easily scarce. Currently, my family has only bought some foods such as candy, soft drinks, Tet gifts or some household appliances in the kitchen" - Mr. Duy said.
Also choosing to shop for Tet early, Mr. Pham Minh Thong (Nam Tu Liem district, Hanoi) said: "The goods in the supermarket are diverse and easy to choose. At this time, people have started shopping for Tet, so it is quite crowded here. I had to queue for more than 30 minutes to pay."
