The Black Friday sales can be a great chance to grab some bargains.
Here are some ideas for crafters.
But you need to plan ahead and create your budget plan. If you follow your simple Black Friday Budget Plan, you should have a successful and organized shopping expedition this year! Here are a few tips to help you with your shopping.
Check out a store before sales start so you know where everything is.
Stores move things around A LOT around Christmas. The tv you were going for is most likely NOT in the tv section! They will have moved it to a “special” section.
Sign up for memberships and rewards programs before hitting the stores.
For example, link to Amazon Prime membership ahead of time. This saves time when you’re shopping online and quantities of that hot item are limited.
Costco has some of the best discounted gift cards around. Get 20% off spa certificates, Fandango tickets, local restaurants, and much more!
Prioritize purchases by focusing on 3-5 items you really want to save big on.
Stay focused and and avoid impulse buys. Don’t get distracted by the “squirrels.” That’s where the Black Friday Planner comes in handy.
The best online and in-store deals are on apparel. Jackets and outerwear are an awesome buy on Black Friday. However, jewelry and accessories tend to be cheaper on Cyber Monday.
Don’t wait for Black Friday to shop online
Most of the sales you see advertised at brick-and-mortar stores can also be found online.Online sales start the Monday before Thanksgiving!
This is certainly my strategy. I don’t have any desire to battle the crowds! Even more so now! I’ll forgo the hustle and bustle of brick and mortar Black Friday shopping and just sit home with a nice cup of hot cocoa, wearing my favorite pjs and a comfy pair of socks! But I’ll still be using the Black Friday Battle Plan worksheets to keep me on track.
Oh, and Beau, if you’re reading this, I’ll take anything from Oprah’s Favorite Things List! (wink, wink)
