Shopping for Good Deals for the Holidays -
It’s Never Too Early to Begin!


I know, I know,  it’s only the beginning of November and already we are talking “Holiday Season”. I’m not trying to rush you – I’m trying to help you get some good deals – and plan ahead. The one site I love is Black Friday Ads.  This website  plans for the “big day” – no, not Christmas, but Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, which is the busiest shopping day of the year!

This site not only lists each store and what specials they will have on Black Friday, but they have the scans of the ads too, in a .pdf format, so it's just as if the original ad is in your  hands. For example, as of this morning, J.C. Penney, Kohls, and Toys R Us are already listed there, just to name a few. By posting these ads so far in advance, it gives you time to plan and price shop so you know ahead of time if you are getting the deal of the century.

 It wasn’t that long ago that people waited many hours outside in the cold, damp, early morning hours for a store to open to get the great “deals” that were only available that day. Well, some people still do that – but me? I’m at my computer at midnight on Thanksgiving, picking up all of the things that some people, already frozen, lining up in front of the stores, are waiting for. And let's not even discuss the insurmountable crowds! Me, my hot chocolate and a computer; won't you join me?  Christmas shopping doesn’t get any better than this…and to all a goodnight!
