You have success! Here we provide the best ways to tackle the big day this year and just about any Black Friday afterwards.
1. Stay Updated
Research. Research. Research. Best of all, sign up for email newsletters from your favorite brands for early access to discounts. Make a game plan and download shopping apps, follow your favorite retailers on social media, and search for ads online.
2. Don’t Be Fooled
Some stores increase prices weeks before Black Friday comes around which makes discounts appear higher. Take a look at their original prices
beforehand so you don’t get tricked into buying an item that is not as significantly cheaper.
3. Plan Ahead
If you are trying to stick to a budget, make a list and decide how much you want to spend on each person. Yes, this even includes a price range for yourself. This will ensure your hidden lunatic persona won’t make a grand appearance on Black Friday — especially when you see that $400 Marc Jacobs purse you’ve been dying to buy for the past three months but still can’t afford to.
4. Bring a Buddy
It’s safe to say Black Friday can bring out a double personality from anyone. It can bring out your best but it can also bring out your worst. The environment is hectic. Shoving, sweating, running, grabbing — it can make you tense and sometimes you might just end up picking items you don’t really need. I mean, do you really need another expensive pair of heels? Running deals through your friend will ensure neither of you go overboard on shopping.
