CyberMonday.Global analytics examined historical statistics about worldwide sales — Black Friday and Cyber Monday — and prepared a prognosis for 2023.
With a help of Google Trends, we verified the popularity of Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales in time, both globally and in Saudi Arabia.
For ten years, the interest in Black Friday sales steadily increased. In comparison with Black Friday, Cyber Monday was marginalised in the last two years, probably because Black Friday’s time frame became blurry — it is not confined to Friday anymore.
Data for Saudi Arabia shows that the peak of interest in both Black Friday and Cyber Monday fell on 2015. Although 2019 was not the best year in terms of Internet users’ activity, both events still receive Saudis’ attention. Unfortunately, the pandemic and unstable situation in the labour market and the economy may cool off the interest of some shoppers.
Internal data of CyberMonday.Global platform indicates that in Saudi Arabia, on the main day of Black Friday sales, the number of transactions was 695 per cent higher than the annual average in 2019. On the other hand, on Cyber Monday the activity of shoppers was 217 per cent higher than the annual average.
Keeping in mind that sometimes Black Friday sales start as early as Monday, we checked how the sale looked day by day. The biggest activity was, obviously, noted on Friday — 29.4 per cent of the transactions made between November 25 and December 2 fell on this day. The Tuesday prior to Black Friday had the least number of purchases during the analysed period. In total, 7.4 per cent of all annual sales took place during the 8 days of sales.
We asked 19 thousand Internet users in several dozens of countries about their opinion on November sales. 37 per cent of Saudis who took part in any of the analysed events were satisfied. 55 per cent of consumers were rather satisfied. The proportion of unsatisfied consumers in Saudi Arabia is quite low (8 per cent rather unsatisfied and none unsatisfied). Hungarians, Argentinians, and South Africans were the most discontent about Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
What was the biggest hassle for shoppers? Among the unsatisfied, 59 per cent said that discounts were too low. The second most common complaint (53 per cent) was the lack of attractive products on sale. 35 per cent admitted that discounted products were sold out too fast. Long queues in stores and slowly loading websites were a relatively small problem for consumers (18 and 17 per cent respectively).
Statistics on Google search queries can tell a lot about Saudi consumers. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are usually associated with sales on electronics. However, in Saudi Arabia, it is shoes that are extremely popular. During November sales, the demand for this category increased the most — 25 per cent compared to the annual average. A similar trend was observed in countries such as the UAE, Turkey, Hong Kong, or Vietnam.
The second category which increased the most in terms of popularity was home appliances (18 per cent increase), while electronics ranked third (14 per cent).
The survey conducted among citizens od 44 countries shows that Saudis are rather frugal: we will spend 659 SAR on average (around $176). People from Chile and Slovakia will spend a similar amount — $179 and $163 respectively.
Shoppers who are planning to spend the biggest amounts of money on sales come from the USA ($476), Switzerland ($454), and the United Kingdom ($430). Pakistanis and Nigerians will spend the least — $62 and $67.
All statistical data comes from Google Trends, Google Keyword Planner, and Picodi.com, a global discount platform operating since 2010, which created CyberMonday.Global, a site dedicated to Cyber Monday sales. The survey conducted in September 2023.among 19 thousand respondents from 44 countries were also used in the report. For currency conversion, we used the average exchange rate from Google Finance.

In the past, Black Friday sale took place in brick-and-mortar stores, while Cyber Monday sales were organised by online stores. Thus “cyber”.
