It’s the most wonderful time of the year for us Americans. Its getting cold and towards the end of the year, which means holiday season. Thanksgiving, Hannukah Christmas and most importantly Black Friday are right around the corner.
Black Friday can be a super difficult day for most people. The environment and discounts draw many in to buy things that they may not need. And that’s not good for your budget or long term finances. So, I wanted to share some tips for black Friday as well as some of the best deals I could find with you to help you prepare for the big day!
Tips
–Look at your budget/financial situation now – Going into planning for this day with a clear idea of how much you can spend is a good way to make sure you don’t impulse buy and go into debt.
–Make a List – Go into shopping on black Friday with a clear list of what you know you need to get. STICK TO THIS LIST!
–Do your homework before – most companies have already released their black Friday deals. Take some time before the day to find the best deals for what is on your list. Once you know that, set a plan for what stores you are going to go to.

Think long term, not short term.
