Most of you know that I love my Black Friday, while most may take this day of shopping lightly, this is a day where the individuals who are most prepared, walk away the victors.
TIP#1 - Support
While Black Friday can be a success with just 1 individual, if you're looking for a big haul, you'll need an army (seriously). If you only need 1 item from 1 store, 1 person is fine, get there super early, line up and get your 1 item and be a happy camper.
However, if you're looking to get multiple items from a store, you'll need a team. Designating 1 person (or two - if you have manpower) to obtain just 1 specific door buster item (they have limits - normally 1 per person), is the best route to go. It is nearly impossible to get 2 door buster items (normally the items you want are in different parts of the store).
A support team is great as well! While you're waiting in line, they can bring you food, relieve you for a bathroom break, or more importantly - after you have gotten the items you wanted - you'll need help standing in line to check out (you will need at least 1 hour to check out - probably 2-3).
TIP#2 - Know your store
Black Friday isn't really the day to go to a new store where you don't know the layout. While stores do have maps on Black Friday to show the doorbuster items, there are sales as well, and knowing where everything is an advantage.
Ha ha, more importantly - have fun. Everyone is out there to shop, talk to the people around you, you'd be surprised how fun and energetic the crown can be! =D
I could really write a book about this topic, but maybe I'll write another blog with sales and offers! =D
What would I buy?!
TV - TARGET! 50" HDTV for $229. BEST DEAL! 1080p
TV - WALMART! 32" HDTV for $98 (see below)
Yes, the brand isn't the best, but at this price you can afford to get the extended coverage!
iPad - BestBuy, Walmart and Target
Each of these stores are giving at least a $75 discount (Target $75 for iPad Mini, Walmart has a $100 gift card)! Target and Walmart are giving them in a form of a store gift card.
If you are planning to get anyone an iPad and you want to save $75-$100. Go to one of these stores! You might as well bring a friend and buy 2.
Other than that, all of these stores will also have online sales. Walmart, Target, Amazon, BestBuy, and so forth, all will have sales - so make sure your phones are charged and who knows you may be able to score some extra deals while you are waiting. Friendly tip - Create an account at these stores and store your information (including credit card, address, etc) - these items are limited and you don't want your item to sell out while you are typing in your information.
