What’s the holiday season without shopping? The craziness that begins the day after Turkey Day, while tradition for a lot of folks, can still be quite overwhelming. The goal of course is to find the best deals on all of the gifts you plan to give to family and friends (and why not pick up a little something for yourself too?). While “Black Friday” ads from the newspaper are fun to sift through on Thanksgiving, since so many people, unfortunately, no longer purchase or read traditional print media, most turn to the Internet and social media to find their deals.
There are a ton of websites that give preview scans of all of the major stores’ print ads, like bfads.net, blackfridayinfo.com, and theblackfriday.com. Here eager shoppers can find out all of the best deals before the big day, mapping out their game plan. No, I really mean map it out… Target.com offers a service to map out your route in their store!
There is a Twitter handle that gives a feed of Black Friday deals, as well. Follow @blackfriday to find out where to find that big screen TV for $299 without the hassle of paper cuts. 😉
Some of those websites also have Facebook pages to streamline searches. Black-Friday.net has theres at https://www.facebook.com/blackfridaydeals.
I hope that everyone has a wonderful holiday season, and that in spite of the hectic-ness of shopping, cooking, and traveling the true meaning of this time of year shines through! Enjoy with your family and friends 🙂
