I’ve been seeing people getting excited for Black Friday deals, shopping both in stores and online. I’m not someone who likes to shop a lot on Black Friday because whatever I want to buy is never on sale. But for people who like to make some purchases, it’s definitely a good time to save some bucks. I hope everyone enjoys the deals!

I’ve gotten a couple of streaming deals, Hulu and Paramount+. That will be the extent of my Black Friday shopping, though.

And I am expecting a baby soon and I have got some baby stuff this black friday and thats it for me too. I used to spend a lot of money on clothing but my focus has shifted now 😊.

My goal is to knock out all of my Christmas shopping this weekend. I know most of the "deals" really aren't that great, but if I can save any money on things I'd be buying for my kids anyway, it's still a win. My Amazon cart is looking ridiculous already. And I'm sure my credit card statement will be too 😭.

Hahaha. Thats alright as long as you are affording those things. I love christmas shopping during sales and recently I have saved some bucks on outdoor lighting.

I’m in the same situation as you. I never find any deals that I am actually looking for in the stores. I mainly ship online and get the best deals. I hope you find something.. if not look at the cyber Monday deals.

I hate Black Friday shopping because I hate crowds. If I didn't have to be at my store on Black Friday, I would not. (My ex likes to joke that I am an extrovert that hates people ;) )

But let's dispell some myths about Black Friday. It is NOT the biggest shopping day of the year (that is the Saturday before Christmas. There have been years where Black Friday isn't even in the top 5)

Also, the best sales tend to not come on Black Friday anymore. What usually happens is, if sales are down, retailers panic, and you find better deals closer to Christmas. The trick is to wait for those lower prices, but not wait so long that things sell out.

It definitely doesn't have the same buzz that it used to, even just a few years ago.
