Final Thoughts – Black Friday Guidelines & Tips
- Research! Go scope out the stores before Black Friday. Some stores advertise deals, but their prices aren’t lower than their everyday prices
- Utilize your gift cards. What’s better than slashed prices? Even lower prices!
- Plan your day. Schedule your itinerary to optimize your time and save more money! Check with your local stores to see when they open and close.
- Pay with cash. If you only bring a specific amount of cash, this will reduce impulse shopping. No swiping that credit card left and right!
- Bring a friend – the more help, the better. Most pet stores will allow you to bring your pet as well! What a big help that would be.
- Sign up for emails. Stay in touch with all the great offers your favorite stores might offer the last minute.
- Attack the day. Black Friday is one day a year. You can afford to shave off a few extra hours of sleep if you’re really dedicated to finding that amazing deal.
- Have fun! While the day may seem stressful, just remember you don’t have to buy anything. You can watch the madness ensue from the sideline.
