  • Story Text:Shoppers rushed to supermarkets in Mexico City in the early hours of Friday (November 11) to participate in the ‘El fin irresistible,’ or the 'Irresistible Weekend' sale event.
    The event takes place at stores in the Walmart group from November 11 to November 23, one week ahead of “Buen Fin” discount season, similar to Black Friday in the United States. Walmart shops do not participate in Buen Fin.
    People left the store with carts loaded with televisions and looked at discounts on goods such as motorcycles.
    “We’ll keep coming because the sales are really good,” shopper Cristian Martinez told Reuters.
    The "Buen Fin," or "Good Weekend" will take place from November 18-21.
