Get your wallet ready, we already have a date for Black Friday and, of course, we’re going to sin!
Are you anxious? Not yet? Look, it’s just around the corner…
The time has come that many of us look forward to all year long. This day is not only about getting incredible deals, but also the excitement of going out to find that item you want so much. But when exactly is it and how can you make the most of it? Let’s take a look.
When will be?
This year, Black Friday will be on Friday, November 29, 2024, the day after Thanksgiving. This day is like the bell that kicks off the Christmas shopping season, and physical stores are filled with incredible deals that you really don’t want to pass up. It’s the perfect time to start doing your Christmas shopping!
And even better, on December 2, we’ll also have Cyber Monday.
Cyber What?
Cyber Monday, which falls on Monday, December 2, 2024, is a day especially designed for online shopping lovers. Although it used to focus on digital deals, in recent years many of the promotions on this day are intertwined with those of Black Friday. In fact, almost all stores, both online and physical, tend to extend their discounts during the days surrounding these dates.
In recent years the term “Cyber Week” has gained traction to describe the exciting week of deals that begins on Black Friday and extends to the end of Cyber Monday. So, get ready! Cyber Week 2024 will be from November 29 to December 2, and some retailers may continue to offer promotions even beyond. It’s a great time to score discounts on technology, fashion, home goods and much more. You don’t want to miss this opportunity!
What can I buy at the best price during these holidays?
If you already have some Christmas gifts in mind or simply want to treat yourself, here are some tips so you can shop wisely during these special days.

- Home and appliances: If you want a new appliance or want to upgrade your kitchen, now is the perfect time! Appliance brands often offer great prices on items like refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, and other types of appliances.
- Fashion & Beauty: Seasonal clothing, accessories, and beauty products are also heavily discounted. Stores like Macy’s, Sephora, Nordstrom, and Kohl’s have great discounts on fashion, perfume, and makeup.
- Towned by: Kids’ toys are another great category that often get great discounts before the holidays. Take advantage to save on those gifts you’ve been looking for.
Strategies for saving the most
Knowing how and when to shop is key to taking advantage of deals. Here are some practical tips to make sure you don’t miss out:
- Have your Wishlist ready: Before you go shopping, make a list of what you really need or want. This will help you avoid impulse purchases and focus on what’s important
- Research prices before you buy: Sometimes stores can play around with prices, so do some research before you buy. Knowing the current price of the products you want will help you know if you’re really saving when you decide to buy them on Black Friday
- Compare prices: Don’t just go with the first store you see, don’t be impulsive. Big chains like Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon and Target often have similar prices. Comparing prices can help you find the best deal and benefit from additional promotions, like free shipping.
- Set a budget: With so many deals out there, it’s easy to spend more than you thought. Set a budget and try to stick to it. Remember that similar discounts occur at different times of the year, so don’t feel pressured to buy everything at once.
- Check return policies: If you have questions about a product, be sure to check the return policy. During the holidays, many retailers extend their policies, which can give you a little extra peace of mind when shopping.
