It’s almost Thanksgiving! Apart from the turkey and family gatherings, people are also looking forward to the late night rush of black Friday! However, this year the pressure is on to check off as much as you can during your shopping trip. There are only 26 days between black Friday and Christmas this year, which is the shortest possible number of days between the two holidays. In fact, it hasn’t happened since 2002!

This means that stores need to get in their extra sales so they’ll be stepping up promotion! Target already has its deals out! What does that mean for us? Well that means that we’ll have a better idea of the deals, but it also means everyone else will too! So if you’re looking for that deal on that Ipad, you better be ready to line up say four hours before the stores open!

Our personal black Friday shopping advice is this: have an idea of what you want but don’t be upset if you don’t get all the deals. Personally, I would like to let my Thanksgiving dinner settle before freezing my butt off outside of Best Buy, so maybe I won’t get that great deal on a new television. It’s okay! Remember that cyber Monday often has deals that can be just as good as black Friday. So do the research, decide how all out you’re going to go, grab that extra coffee on Thanksgiving, and shop till you drop!
