When is Black Friday 2024?
This year, Black Friday falls on November 29, with Cyber Monday closely following on December 2. But many retailers like to keep the excitement going all month long, offering early sales and extending discounts well beyond Cyber Monday.
How does Black Friday compare to other sales?
With massive discounts across a wide range of products, Black Friday is the perfect time to score deals on everything from fashion to home goods and more. Unlike other sales events, Black Friday often has the deepest discounts of the year.
Plus, with the added excitement of Cyber Monday deals just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to get on top of your Christmas shopping before the utter chaos of December.
How should you prepare for Black Friday and Cyber Monday?
To make the most of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it’s crucial to get a head start. Planning ahead can help you stay organised and ensure you don’t miss out on the best deals.
1. Set a budget and stick to it
One of the keys to successful shopping during these sales is to set a budget and stick to it. Decide how much you’re willing to spend overall and break it down by category or item. This will help you resist the temptation of splurging on deals that might not be as necessary or valuable in the long run.
2. Organise your shopping list
Make your list and check it twice. Whether you’re hunting for Christmas gifts or treating yourself, a well-organised list is your secret weapon.
Jot down who you’re shopping for and pair each name with gift ideas, or if you’re eyeing big-ticket items, create a wishlist to keep you focused.
3. Research like never before
Before the sales hit, dig into product details and reviews to ensure you’re getting the best bang for your buck. Knowing the specs and reading up on what others think can help you make informed choices and avoid impulse buys.
This way, when Black Friday and Cyber Monday roll around, you’ll be ready to pounce on the best deals with confidence.
4. Plan your strategy
If you’re shopping online, familiarise yourself with the website’s navigation and checkout process to avoid delays. Create accounts in advance if possible and save your payment information for a faster checkout.
You should also add your items to cart ahead of time to streamline the process and ensure you’re ready to check out as soon as the deals go live. Trust us when we say that these products will vanish in a flash, so being prepared is key.
