Black Friday, one of the biggest shopping days in the country is quickly approaching. Everyone is making their lists on what to buy people, saving their paychecks, and planning out their night/ bright and early morning shopping spree for all the best deals of the year. All the stores are competing for giving the best deals, marketing the best promotions and getting that money. Here are several ways to keep that $$$ in your pocket instead of all the companies.
Some of the biggest deals come from the biggest companies such as Amazon, Nike, Kate Spade, North Face and so many more. Many companies are already sending out emails and lists of all their promotions and discounts. Sometimes you really have to dig for that perfect deal. Some of Walmart’s deals going on already are Apple Watches for $169, Roku tv’s for $120, and the prices will continue to drop as it gets closer to the big day. Companies will see other people dropping their prices and they will start to drop their prices to get the business.
Some of my personal favorite deals/pieces of advice I have for the biggest shopping day of the year:
1. I got my Series Three Apple Watch off of Amazon last Black Friday for about $150. You do not have to go to Apple or the real maker to get a good deal.
2. My parents got a brand new 72-inch tv for $200. Tt was almost 300 dollars off!! Best Buy always has amazing deal.
3. Clothes are always a big MUST because a lot of stores such as American Eagle, Victoria Secret, H&M, and most any store you can think of will have a massive sell with up to at least 50% off. Sometimes they also have buy one get one or a bundle sale.
4. I have learned that a lot of higher end stores such as Altar’d State, Francesca’s, Lululemon and even Nike have sells/discounted prices. But their stores are already more expensive, so it doesn’t really seem you are getting a deal. You must keep in mind that if you want it, you might as well pay for the item at that price because it will only go right back up.
5. YOU NEED TO GO EARLY. If you are even going to go through the hassle of getting out, you need to go early to make sure you are getting to look through all the stores you want while everything is still in stock. With many stores opening in the middle of the night, that might be your best opportunity!
6. Bring snacks and drinks because you will get hungry and/or thirsty, and you do not want to waste time standing in a line for food when you could be in line/shopping at your favorite store!
Keep all these things in mind so you have the best Black Friday experience ever! Good luck and may you find the best deals!
