On your mark, get set, shop! Each year, it’s a mad dash to downtown Turnersville, Cherry Hill, and Mount Laurel for the best Black Friday steals and deals. Whether you’re in it to save on holiday stocking stuffers or the thrill of finding a good bargain, we’ve put together a Black Friday survival guide so you can optimize your savings.
Look for Stores That Open Early
The early bird gets the worm! Shoppers get the best deals when stores such as Walmart, Sears, Toys R Us, and Best Buy first open their doors late Thursday evening or early Friday morning. If you’re willing to get up after feasting on Thanksgiving, you can save on everything from the latest clothes to toys and technology items before the sun even rises.
Look for Similar Sales the Week Before
If you’re looking for a bargain but want to avoid the crowds, check your favorite stores for sales during the week leading up to Black Friday. Many retailers offer generous specials and savings so you can dodge the chaotic mall parking lots, the packed department stores, and hectic specialty shops.
Best Technology to Shop for on Black Friday
Black Friday is one of the best times to stock up on brand-new computers, electronics, smartphones, televisions, and gaming systems. Major retailers such as Walmart, Target, Kohl’s, and Best Buy offer major discounts and doorbuster sales on everything from Blu-ray players to household appliances. If Black Friday isn’t your cup of tea, check out some Cyber Monday deals!
Establish a Game Plan
If you plan to hit the Cherry Hill Mall on Black Friday, it’s probably best to establish a shopping schedule. Look up which stores are having the best sales and visit them early before their inventory runs low. There’s nothing worse than when your favorite store runs out of their sales items on Black Friday. Additionally, with so many sales-hungry crowds, it may not be a bad idea to establish an escape route.
Wear Running Shoes
We’re all familiar with the mad dash toward our neighborhood superstores on Black Friday. If you plan to shop in the early hours of the morning, chances are you’re going try to beat everyone else into the store. So take it from us because Black Friday isn’t for the faint of heart: Wear sneakers.
Be Courteous
Competition is good, but some people get too aggressive in their hunt for the best Black Friday sales. Be polite to your fellow shoppers and to Black Friday sales staff.
Have Fun on Black Friday!
We wish you the best of luck when you go Black Friday shopping! It’s a great way for families in Turnersville, Cherry Hill, and Mount Laurel to kick off the holiday season. Black Friday, which is November 27 this year, is rapidly approaching, and we hope that you’re prepared for this year’s unbelievable savings!
