6 Tips To Get The Most Out Of Black Friday Deals

Do you like the idea of saving money, but hate the idea of leaving the house at the crack of dawn to wait outside in long lines of people? The entire Black Friday weekend has slowly been moving its way online. There’s no need to wait for Cyber Monday to get all the savings you want without leaving the house! Here are a few tips and tricks for getting all of the best deals online during the Black Friday craze.

1. Research Deals and Make a Shopping List

Start tracking deals early and making shopping lists for all of the things you’d like to buy. You can start doing this much earlier than you think! Retailers seem to release their Black Friday/Cyber Monday ads earlier each year, which allows you to pounce on the deals as soon as they go live!  This shopping list will also help you stick to a budget by keeping you from buying anything you don’t need like last-minute cart add-ons that are usually full-price.

2. Sign Up for Store Newsletters and follow Social media handles of your favorite retailers

If you plan to shop at a particular retailer, be sure to sign up for their e-newsletter a few weeks before the sale. It’s a great way to get all the information you need for the sale, without having to scour the internet for what you need.

Want to save even more? Follow your favorite brands on Facebook and Twitter, so you'll hear about any flash sales. 

Follow MelodySusie to get the timely updates on our upcoming Friday Super Sale!

3. Sign Up For Amazon Prime

Want to be able to shop before everyone else? Amazon Prime Members get early access to many of the Lightning Deals on Amazon. On Cyber Monday, that's a serious advantage, and well worth the price of a membership. The program also comes with free two-day shipping. Or with order over $25, you get free shipping as well, even without a Prime account.

4. Pre-Load Your Shopping Cart

 Save valuable shopping time by pre-loading your shopping cart with the items you want to buy the day before the sale begins. This trick won't work on every site, but when it does, it'll get you to checkout a much, much faster.

5. Wake up Early or Stay up Late

Cyber Monday doesn’t start at 9:00 a.m. – it starts at midnight. In other words, if you wait until the morning to shop, the best deals may be long gone. Also, find out what time zone each store you want to purchase from is in. If your favorite online retailer follows East Coast time and you live in California, be ready to shop at 9:00 p.m. Sunday night.

6. Be Safe

First and foremost, be safe when you shop online. Never purchase from a website you haven’t heard of, and stay away from deals that are simply too good to be true. If a website requests your social security number to complete a transaction, leave immediately.  Finally, make sure your antivirus and security software are both up to date.

With all the tips above, you will be ready for the Black Friday!
