You’ve just finished Thanksgiving dinner when the idea of Black Friday shopping pops into your mind. The only thing keeping you from going shopping is that you don't know how to take on Black Friday shopping. Here is the ultimate list to help you survive and conquer:
1.
2. Just kidding. Create a list of big items (ex: TV, computer, GoPro) that you need to get and where they are
3. Get there early, before the store opens
4. Bring a friend with you to wait in line for you while you find the items you need
5. Bring a nice, happy, patient attitude (people will be pushing and rude)
6. Know what you expect to pay for it and make sure it is actually a deal
7. Bring snacks/water/flask you could be waiting for a while
8. Wear comfy clothes and running shoes
9. Check your balances to your credit/debit card
10. Stick to your budget!
11. Download a Black Friday app
12. Keep in mind some stores will do price-matching, so check their policies
13. Get a gift receipt
14. Do your research and use comparing price websites
15. Keep it fun and fuel your energy with coffee or an energy drink!
Happy Deal Hunting and Black Friday shopping!
