Do you love a good bargain? I know I do. I’m going to share my top 5 Black Friday shopping tips to take Black Friday (or Cyber Monday!) by storm.
1. Decide which stores you MUST go to.
We can’t be everywhere at once (although if you figure it out, please do share with the rest of us). The first thing to do is narrow down the list to which stores you want to hit up.
2. Figure out when each store is open.
The most confusing part to Black Friday shopping, in my opinion, is that all the stores are open at different times and have different sales in different time frames throughout the day (and night). To help, take the list of stores you want to go to, and list the times the stores are open next to the store name.
3. Determine any time specific deals.
Next note any deals that are taking place at certain times. For example, Target has some specific deals that start at 9pm, vs. their opening at 6pm. Determine if you need to be there at 6pm for the door busters or not until 9pm for the second round specials.
4. Create a schedule.
Now go through your list of stores, open hours & specific deals and make a schedule.
5. Create a list & gather any coupons needed.
Lastly, create a list of items you need to shop for at each store and paper clip any coupons you may need to the list. Need help organizing coupons? Check out this post: How to Save Money During the Holidays {Ask Anna}
