Thoughts of Black Friday are usually filled with waking up at 5am, waiting in the cold outside of some retail store only to have that deal you were looking for snatched away from you by some mean middle aged women.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Plenty of online retailers offer Black Friday deals too, and instead of standing outside in the cold being shoved around by strangers you can sit in the comfort of your own home and hit the refresh button on your browser a thousand times.
There are various websites that give you the run-down on Black Friday retail ads and deals. Also plenty of stores have started deals early so you can get some good deals before November 27th.
Amazon usually offers good deals on Black Friday and any online store will usually offer some sales the day after Thanksgiving, just make sure you do your research and are actually getting a deal.
I never understood black friday. Maybe because I never went shopping that day but I feel like they don’t offer deals that are THAT great to wake up early and camp out for. I’m sure that’ll all change when I get older and have kids and find myself in a Jingle All The Way moment, being trampled by mall shoppers to get a Turbo Man doll.
