BLACK FRIDAY SDSTYLE

Here's a BMCSTYLE guide to the BEST BLACK FRIDAY EVER! I have to admit to you all that I never shop on Black Friday. Mostly, due to my allergic reaction to overly zealous shoppers, vying for the best bargains. I'm not judging anyone, I'd just rather spend a little more on gifts and save my sanity. However, I've decided to give you brave souls out there my best shopping advice to help ensure you have a somewhat enjoyable Black Friday experience.

Step 1. Start loading up on the strongest coffee your little body can handle around 8pm Thanksgiving night. Malls/stores will open at Midnight!

Step 2. Make a shopping list while pumping caffeine into your system. Never shop without a list! It will help you stay on track and on budget, if you believe in those.

Step 3. Dress appropriately. Preferably flat boots, leggings, tunic sweater, and a lightweight jacket. You don't want to have too many layers, it will get hot, running through the crowds and fighting for your lives.

Step 4. Carry a cross body handbag. You need both hands free at all times to carry shopping bags and push people out of your way. (See "Crossover" blog post for suggestions).

Step 5. Make sure to use your department store credit cards and load up on all the incentives they have to offer. Just keep that part to yourself. No one has to know you have credit cards.

Step 6. Check the Simon Mall or Westfield Shopping Mall sites for all the deals your favorite stores have to offer.

Step 7. Celebrate your successful Black Friday shopping day later that night at The Office in Northpark with DJ SEIZE and BEATNICK!

HAPPY TURKEY DAY & HAPPY SHOPPING!!!!!!
