So one of the biggest "holidays" is happening this week and everyone I have talked to is gearing up for Black Friday. American stores and customers are preparing for this day and the excitement is on every street corner. I don't know why but I have never really gotten into Black Friday. Probably because I find it crazy that people will stand outside for hours to get a coffee machine or a computer. But if there is something I have gained from listening to all the crazy Black Friday stories, it is what to do to prepare for this crazy day.
Know What You Want- if you are going to stand outside of Target or Best Buy for a couple hours make sure you have in mind what you want so that you can focus on the mission ahead. Spend some time before you head out too so that you have your mind set.
Know When Your Sale Starts- If you have had your eye on that new computer make sure you know when the sale starts. It is safe to say that if you are late, you're not getting your new computer.
Dress Warm- I get nervous for the people that stand outside for a long time without a jacket or something to keep warm. So please make sure you dress warmly.
Don't Spend More Than You Have- This is something I hear a lot of. People will just put everything they buy on their credit card and then when the bill comes in, they stress out because they don't know how they are going to pay the bill. So please be smart and give yourself a limit you can pay for.
Use All of the Discounts You Can Get- I think I have every app for every store I shop at so that I can get discounts. So make sure you have your coupons and sale ads ready.
Enjoy Yourself- If you do insist on going out for Black Friday, make it enjoyable. Make good conversation and get the things you have been waiting for.
Are you going out this Friday? What are you after?
