Black Friday Prep
- Wish list: It can get very chaotic on black day and the last thing you want is to glance through categories all day long. Prepare a wish list to guide you through what you can realistically afford and what you actually need.
- Bookmark your websites: Planning to do online shopping? Browse through websites the night before and bookmark the ones you like. Familiarise yourself with the website before hand and pre-load your payment details. This will make it easier to just focus on the deals.
- Squad goals: Black Friday is not a one-man’s show. In order for you to snag the best deals out of it, you’ll need a team to split the list with.
- Turn on notifications: Be in the know by signing up for newsletters, reading through local newspapers, print ads and staying up to date on social media.
- Set a budget: Nothing is more daunting then having to organise a budget for what you can afford on Black Friday, but having a well-planned budget can help you make the most of your bargain-hunting.
