Tips for the Best Black Friday
Black Friday is one of the best chances of the year to get great savings on almost anything you want. However, it can stressful, confusing, and hectic, so use these three helpful tips to get the most out of this once a year shopping experience.
Make A Plan
Black Friday sales can generate large crowds of people all trying to fit into the same store, all moving around to find different items. This can make the shopping experience very disorienting, so it’s important to make a plan before you go. Make a list of what you intend to buy, in order of importance, and list the price range that you’re willing to spend. Bringing this list with you on Black Friday will help keep you focused on buying what you came for and focusing on the important items first will help make the trip the most beneficial. Listing the price ranges for the items will also help you resist impulse buying the many products that will be on sale.
Get a Receipt
Black Friday is a great time to shop for gifts for loved ones, but be careful. Stores sometimes use great discount deals to distract you from the return policy. Return policies during Black Friday are often not the same as the rest of the year, so keep an eye out for the fine print. The best way to safeguard against a changed return policy is to always get a receipt and keep it in a safe place, and a gift receipt might help even more. In the chaos of Black Friday sales it can be easy to grab your items after checkout and go, but stopping to grab a receipt will go a long way if a gift doesn’t fit or a product doesn’t work how you need it to.
Stay Home
With the rising popularity of Cyber Monday and online shopping, is the hustle and bustle of Black Friday really worth it? Unless you’re looking for an item that can only be picked up in stores, it may be better to stay in on Friday night. Shopping from your laptop within the comfort of your home might sound like a better idea than wading through crowds of shoppers. With online shopping, you can also look for deals throughout the week and weekend leading up to Cyber Monday. This way you have time to compare prices and vendors, which may not be a choice if you go out shopping Friday night.
