What Are Some Tips For Shopping Black Friday 2023?
1. Start shopping early
While many deals won't be live until Friday, November 24th, there are still tons of deals that will be going on all throughout November, so, the earlier you start the more deals you can find!
2. Check multiple sites
While we may be fresh off the Amazon Prime Day part 2, all the big retail players will be in the game for Black Friday. Make sure to shop around on sites like Amazon, Best Buy, Target, Walmart, and more to make sure you find the best price available.
3. Set up Watch-a-Deal notifications
The Amazon mobile app has a great feature that allows users to be notified when specific items go on sale. In the app, it's as simple as going to Settings > Programs and Features > Deals > Upcoming and then selecting the deals you're interested in. Find the "Watch This Deal" button and then you'll be notified when the item goes on sale. You can download the app for free on iOs and Android.
4. Use Tools To Help You Shop
Since you're already shopping online, you might as well continue to take advantage of the tech. There are price tracker and comparison tools like CamelCamelCamel and Honey that can aid in finding you the best deals, tracking the history of a product's price fluctuations, and sending you alerts when the price drops below a certain threshold.
When Is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday will take place on Monday, November 27th, the following Monday after Black Friday. In the past, we have seen some new deals pop up specifically for Cyber Monday as well as deals carry over from Black Friday through Cyber Monday (and sometimes beyond), so Black Friday sales basically extend for around four days at this point.
Why are they called "Black Friday" and "Cyber Monday?"
In 1869, investors Jay Gould and Jim Fisk drove the price of gold up, causing the market to crash. The term "Black Friday" was coined to describe that dark say on September 24th, and was then subsequently used to describe other bad situations. Flash forward to 1950's Philadelphia where police were calling the influx of shoppers who poured into the city the day after Thanksgiving, which they dubbed "Black Friday," connecting the term to the shopping event. Due to the negative connottion associated with the the term, the event would go through a failed name change, the short lived "Big Friday."
The holiday continue to grow throughout the rest of the century and into the early 2000's when the National Retail Federation introduced "Cyber Monday" due to the sharp increase in online traffic and revenue on the Monday that followed Black Friday. Since the shift from mainly in-person sales to digital sales, the "Black Friday" and "Cyber Monday" terms are now used to describe huge discounts and deals throughout the month of November, while officially still remaining on the Friday after the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday and the following Monday.
