November is finally here and it’s time for all the holiday cheer to begin. While most people are prepping turkeys and getting the seating chart perfected for Thanksgiving dinner, I’m focused on the more important holiday coming up in November: Black Friday. The holiday every compulsive shopper dreams of. With COVID-19 last year making the holiday unviable, the deals have been accumulating. Whether you are shopping for your friends, family or even yourself, these deals will tempt even the most frugal shopper. 

Starting off with clothes, there are many stores holding sales. Looking for high fashion? Nordstrom is having sales up to 40% off. Or if you are looking for more athleisure or need some sporting equipment Adidas and Nike are both having sales going on as well. Nike has up to 40% off running shoes, hoodies, and sweats. Even better, Adidas has up to 50% off online and in store and free shipping! If you are planning on staying in and don’t want to deal with the lines, online boutiques are having deals too! Shop at Nastygal while they have 70% off this year on everything!

If clothing isn’t your thing and you’re looking more for electronics, there are plenty of deals for you too. With Amazon around, you don’t need to worry about busting down the doors of your local target for doorbusters because so many are available online. Amazon is having deals ranging from headphones to even iPads. If you’re looking for some home appliances, Roombas are on sale for a record low of $199.99 instead of $299.99. Or, if you’re looking to get the newest air fryer, Ninja models have been marked from $129.99 to only $99.99. Moving up, you can find Airpod Pros for $189 when they are $249 originally. The best deal yet from Amazon? They have iPad Pros priced down from $1099 to only $999! And if you do want to shop in person and be part of the thrill of it all, do not worry because stores such as Walmart have deals for days including a Samsung 60” Smart TV for $528 from $599.

The deals don’t end there. While some of these are pricier purchases, you may be looking to spend a bit less or get a gift for someone else so I have a few specific deals that double as gift ideas. Super into hair? Get the Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer And Volumizer Hot Air Brush, usually $59.99 but only $34.88 on Amazon. Also on Amazon is the Echo Dot (3rd Gen) Smart Speaker for $19.99 (marked down from $30) and the Fire TV Stick Lite with Alexa Voice Remote for $17.99 (marked down from $30). And once again if you are shopping in-store, brands like Walmart and Target have great deals on gifts such as the Fluxx FX3 Hoverboard on sale from $199 to $98 at Walmart of the CHI Digital Flat Iron from $99.99 to $69.99 at Target (Not on sale until 11/26).

While this list of deals is swirling and highlights some of the many things going on this upcoming Friday, it is only the beginning. Whether you are staying in or waiting in line for hours to get these deals, hopefully, this has brought about some helpful inspiration. Best of luck to everyone shopping, and let the Black Friday purchases begin.
