We all love a bargain, but low prices and cheap products can have hidden costs.
With competition to attract shoppers with huge savings, manufacturers and suppliers look to cut production costs.
As waves of cost-cutting flow up and down supply chains and as efforts are made to avoid shrinking profit margins
to constantly increase sales, profits and market share, it is often those in vulnerable positions who end up shouldering
the burden and paying for savings. We see this in worse working conditions, longer hours, and less pay.
This #BlackFriday and #CyberMonday, take a moment to think about the hidden costs of the things you want to buy
and do your research on the businesses you are buying from.
