Friday shopping in the 60&#8242;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Black Friday has many theories linked to its name, and it dates back to the early 20th century. There is a popular mix-up that the term <strong>Black Friday<\/strong> comes from the 1869 financial crisis following the collapse of the US gold market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more widely acknowledged theory, on the other hand, states that it started in Philadelphia in the 1960s. The phrase was formed by local police officers and bus drivers to give name to the chaos and jam that came from a massive rush of shoppers and tourists onto the streets the day after Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterwards, retailers welcomed the phrase and gave it a positive connotation to herald the beginning of the holiday shopping season with substantial markdowns. The moniker stuck, and eventually it expanded to become a national shopping extravaganza in the US and abroad, developing into what is now known as Black Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"when-is-black-friday-2023\"><strong>When is Black Friday 2023<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Black Friday is basically the fourth Friday of November every year, and in 2023, it falls on the 24<sup>th<\/sup>. To make it even easier to remember, it is the day after Thanksgiving Day in the United States. Black Friday is the unofficial start of the holiday shopping season, and it&#8217;s a day when the majority of retailers offer gigantic discounts and deals on a wide range of products, making it the most-desired day for shoppers looking to grab the best bargains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"planning-your-black-friday-strategy\"><strong>Planning Your Black Friday Strategy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"451\" src=\"https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1.jpg\" alt=\"planning-your-black-friday-strategy\" class=\"wp-image-3780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-766x432.jpg 766w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-1536x866.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-2048x1155.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-266x150.jpg 266w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-621x350.jpg 621w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/planning-your-black-friday-strategy-1-788x444.jpg 788w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Black Friday rush<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-set-a-budget\"><strong>1. Set a Budget<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We all eagerly wait for Black Friday, but that doesn\u2019t mean we need to spend all our budget in one single day only for the sake of saving. So, it is a good idea to set aside the money you want to spend before purchasing, and most importantly, stick to it. This will help you avoid impulse purchases and overspending. This way, you can use your money without getting caught up in the euphoria of discounts, which is kind of impossible, but that\u2019s why we\u2019re here to discuss, aren\u2019t we?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-prioritize-your-shopping-list\"><strong>2. Prioritize Your Shopping List<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Create a shopping list that includes items you genuinely need or have been eyeing for a while. Prioritize your list based on necessity and how much you can save on each item, and don\u2019t get tricked by the percentage. For example, a 50% discount on a 30-dollar product seems tempting, but you only save 15 dollars, and you might not even need it. But a 25% discount on a 100-dollar product saves you 25 dollars on a product that is useful to you. This way, you&#8217;ll focus on what matters most and avoid getting distracted by tempting but unnecessary purchases. Your list might include electronic gadgets, appliances, clothing, jewelry, or even early holiday gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-research-in-advance\"><strong>3. Research in Advance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many retailers release their Black Friday deals ahead of time. Take advantage of this and research the items you plan to buy. Compare prices, read reviews, and check the specifications. Use this information to your advantage to have a better understanding of what to buy, where to buy, and how much to spend on each item. Don\u2019t end up going to the shop or surfing the shopping sites on the internet without having a clue and ending up buying items that will make you regret your decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-timing-is-everything\"><strong>4. Timing is Everything<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Black Friday sales often start early in the morning, but is it really a one-day discount? The answer is &#8220;no.&#8221;. &nbsp;A vast majority of online retailers start their Black Friday discount on the Monday before Thanksgiving, which is 4 days before Black Friday, and last all the way to Cyber Monday. In this case, you should consider making your purchases before the actual Black Friday to avoid out of stock products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for in-shop buyers, keep in mind that the rush hour is from the opening of the shops until the lunch break. If you want a more \u201crelaxed\u201d shopping experience, you should go in the afternoon or evening, but it will still be crowded, and there is always the disadvantage of out-of-stock items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday\"><strong>Getting the Most out of Black Friday<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"getting-the-most-out-of-your-black-friday\" class=\"wp-image-3774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-766x432.jpg 766w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-1536x866.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-2048x1155.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-266x150.jpg 266w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-621x350.jpg 621w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday-788x444.jpg 788w, https:\/\/flamedeals.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/getting-the-most-out-of-black-friday.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-online-vs-in-store-shopping\"><strong>5. Online vs. In-Store Shopping<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hmmm\u2026 another shopping dilemma, in-store or online. Well, both options have their advantages. In-store shopping allows you to touch the product, use testers in some cases, or ask for assistance for more details in real time. All of that makes the experience more tangible on every level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, online shopping provides convenience and eliminates the need to wait in long lines. Also, some buyers are intrigued by the waiting time and look forward to it as if it were a birthday gift. Based on this point of view, you can decide to divide your shopping items into these two categories. Seems like fun, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-use-price-comparison-websites\"><strong>6. Use Price Comparison Websites<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several websites and apps are designed to help you find the best deals. Use price comparison tools to ensure you&#8217;re getting the lowest price available. They can help you quickly identify the best offers of the moment without spending hours on several websites or opening countless tabs on your browser. You will also receive suggestions for similar items with a much better price and possibly better features. <a href=\"http:\/\/Price.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Price.com<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/shopping.google.com\/?nord=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Goggle Shopping<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shopzilla.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shopzilla<\/a> are some ones you can rely on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"7-consider-your-loyalty-programs\"><strong>7. Consider Your Loyalty Programs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Check to see if the stores you&#8217;ve eyed have these enticing loyalty programs waiting for you before embarking on your Black Friday shopping spree. Consider it as getting ready for a major adventure and supplying yourself with the necessary tools to meet the thrilling obstacles that lie ahead. If you discover that these programs are actually offered, don&#8217;t think twice about signing up in advance. It&#8217;s similar to getting your VIP pass to a world of discounts secured. Sign up for those loyalty programs, and let the magic of savings and appreciation be your loyal companions on this retail adventure. Happy shopping!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"8-bundle-and-save\"><strong>8. Bundle and Save<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some discounts come in the form of bundle deals; if you get the set, the price drops significantly. This can be an excellent way to save money, especially if you&#8217;re buying products that complement each other. There is a common drawback: one of the items in the bundle may not fit your needs, but you can sell it to your acquaintances for a lower price, or you can give it as a small gift.

Be Cautious of Scams<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While Black Friday offers incredible deals, it&#8217;s also a prime time for scams. We often receive \u201ctoo good to be true\u201d offers in our inbox throughout the year, and, of course, we instantly move them to the spam folder. However, during Black Friday, these \u201cfantastic\u201d deals might seem more realistic. Our take on this is to rely on reputable websites or shops you have already purchased from. Don\u2019t click suspicious links or download attachments from unknown sources. Stay safe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"10-secure-your-personal-information\"><strong>10. Secure Your Personal Information<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When shopping online, ensure that the websites you visit are secure. Look for &#8220;https&#8221; in the web address and a padlock icon in the browser&#8217;s address bar. Avoid making purchases over public Wi-Fi networks, as they may not be secure and steal personal data such as passwords and bank information. It&#8217;s also a good practice to create strong, unique passwords for your online shopping accounts or use an authenticator app for extra security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"11-keep-track-of-your-spending\"><strong>11. Keep Track of Your Spending<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you make purchases, keep a record of your spending.
