The Black Friday Deals Are Here! This Is How To Save The Most!

November 25, 2019 Stu Q

Black Friday is one of the biggest economy days of the year. It is one of the best times for consumers to find great deals. Amidst all of the hustle and bustle of the holidays, many choose this day to do most of their holiday shopping in hopes to find the best deal. However, this unique day has dwindled over the years. What use to be early morning deals of the Friday after Thanksgiving has grown to include more days. So what does that mean for us?

The Deals Last The Whole Month

As the years have progressed, Black Friday has turned into Black month. What was once a day only deal has turned into deals all month long. This is great for the consumer and even better for businesses. Businesses can mark down there items for longer on those products which people are typically waiting for every year. They will sell more for a smaller profit and will likely come out better than having it for only one day. For the consumer, you have the option to budget or plan longer for the items you want to purchase. It also allows you to actually get the item you are wanting and have less of possibility of not getting it due to a sudden demand.

Deals Before Can Be Better

Some of the deals we have been watching throughout the month have actually been better than what might be seen on Black Friday itself. For example, Target had some TV’s on sale with Black Friday pricing in addition to a 15% off at check out. This extra 15% will not be available on Black Friday though. So, if you were to buy a TV this last weekend, you would save even more money than waiting for the sale this Friday. Luckily for us, we DID see this and now have monstrous TV for the family room (yes, it has been in the budget for almost 5 months).

Know Your Ads

One of the biggest mistakes anyone can make when trying to plan Black Friday shopping is not managing the ads. The Black Friday ads typically come out the first week of November. The will list out all of the biggest deals for you to choose from. Thus, if there are doorbusters you want to hit, you will know before the day of where you need to go. It will allow for a easier plan logistically and may prevent you from hitting some bigger crowds.

Ultimately Black Friday can be a lot of fun if you are into it. If you are not, it is best to stick to the deals earlier in the month, or wait till cyber Monday.
