Stores are gearing up for Black Friday

Walmart is rolling out the in-store deals at 6PM Thanksgiving day.

Many customers were out on the eve of Thanksgiving filling their carts as they have no plans to shop on Thursday.

Throughout the eight days Amazon will offer limited-time Lightning Deals on thousands Black Friday deals per day. Many of us get overwhelmed too at times, given the sheer number of deals, various starting times etc. Today, we want to help our United Kingdom readers. With the exception of a handful of in-store only doorbusters, stores have smartened up to our shopping habits and are now placing equally awesome deals online. Over the past few years, this spending extravaganza has increasingly migrated online, marking the descent of the infamous Black Friday, and the ascent of the much more convenient and comfortable Cyber Monday.

Walmart’s “Dare to Compare” promotion for Black Friday promises to match or beat the best online prices of some products that are also offered by several major retailers.

#3 Missed discounts – With all the chaos of Black Friday you forget to search for additional discounts.

“It’s nearly as if they are offering it as a new Thanksgiving experience”, said Howard Forman, Cal State Fullerton associate professor of marketing. Demand for more flexible shopping continues to drive it as a familiar holiday tradition; those who reject the notion of Thanksgiving night sales may choose other shopping options.

The only downside is that most of the LED TV deals for 2015 Black Friday are limited in quantity, which means you have to be there super early in the day on Black Friday to get the deals.

“Black Friday is really big for us, even though we’re a small independent store, we still do really good deals”, said Talia Blanchard, one of the owners of Sq/ft.

#4 Online – More stores are now having Thanksgiving and Black Friday sales online.

However, the company’s employees are not being cut out of any potential money they would have earned if they worked the day after Thanksgiving. “We’ve started to see a backlash in America and the United Kingdom, where larger retailers have made a decision to not take part in Black Friday”. In addition, Prime members in 20 metro areas can use the dedicated Prime Now mobile app to enjoy free two-hour delivery on select Deals of the Day throughout the holiday season.
