Will You Be Braving Black Friday?

Some people love - and live by - Black Friday. They see it as tradition, and have no qualms about waiting in long lines or being elbow-to-elbow with strangers. Others see Black Friday as an opportunity to snag great deals; they believe this is their once-a-year opportunity to find the ultimate deal. If shopping on Black Friday is something you enjoy doing, then I hope you have a wonderful time - and find bargains while you're at it.

This is not a scientific assessment by any means, but I believe Black Friday is overrated. And it certainly doesn't seem like the bargain bonanza it used to be. With the introduction of Cyber Monday and proliferation of online coupons, it is possible to find as good as - or even better - deals by shopping online. When you check out sites like Retailmenot.com you can find coupons offered by all types of merchants, both online and off, including PJ Publications and Gifts. Black Friday is not your only opportunity to find bargains.

With that said, I would love to know, are you planning on doing any shopping on Black Friday?

Here's to finding great bargains, both online and off!

Coupons for Online Shopping

If you love to shop, you may want to take a look at RetailMeNot, a clearinghouse of thousands and thousands of coupons. You can access coupons for all kinds of merchandise, including clothing and jewelry. The site also has a section for printable coupons, an active online community of coupon clippers, and a newsletter.

I found out about this site through ECMTA, a professional ecommerce organization I belong to. Several of my fellow members have coupons on RMN - as do I.

I am not getting paid anything to tell you about RMN. Just wanted to pass it on. Enjoy!
