Master the art of Black Friday shopping with our guide to prepping ahead.

---

It’s time to get your shopping bags ready. Black Friday is almost here! Let us guide you in making the most out of the year’s biggest sale and ensure you come out with the best haul.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
It’s crucial to do your homework before the frenzy! Check the prices of those items you've had your eye on ahead of time. Hopping on the store’s website or app can help you spot real deals from the duds on the day. If you’re shopping online, make sure your Wi-Fi strength is strong so that you don’t have to stress about your signal dropping just as you’ve clicked checkout. It’s also good to make sure you shop on reputable sites or apps such as Bash so that you avoid any “too good to be true” scams

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR POTENTIAL GIFTS
A sale is the best time to grab those gifts for upcoming occasions. Make a list of birthdays, anniversaries, and celebrations in the upcoming year. Store these till the time comes and you’ll have saved yourself time and money.

COMFY KICKS FOR THE WIN
For the brave souls heading in-store on Black Friday, comfort is key. Wear your most comfortable shoes, so you don’t miss out on those deals. With all the walking and queuing, your feet will be forever grateful!

HUNT FOR SEASONAL STAPLES
A lot of people use Black Friday to grab those latest trends. Don’t fall for this trap! Keep an eye out for end-of-season fashion staples that you can rock for years to come. Classic pieces such as a timeless winter coat, a good quality pair of boots or plain tees are gold in disguise.

SET THAT SPENDING LIMIT
It's easy to get carried away when you see those sale signs. Before you shop, set a budget and stick to it. It may be a simple hack, but it will save you from those dreaded impulse buys.

VISIT THOSE FACTORY STORES
A great hack is to visit your nearest factory or clearance store on Black Friday. These stores already house a lot of deals or reduced prices on surplus or reject items. Often these reject items are perfectly fine! That means checking them out on Black Friday means even more savings on top of those reduced prices.
