What to do in NYC: Black Friday Edition

To shop or not to shop, that is the question.  With Black Friday just a few days away, the level of anxiety and excitement across America is increasing by the second.  Black Friday is a highly anticipated event in many households across the nation and it looks like Black Friday 2012 will not disappoint!  Therefore, I’ve taken the time to cruise through several newspapers and websites looking for the best Black Friday sales happening not just in New York, but also the rest of the country. 

Urban Outfitters:  Urban Outfitter is infamous for selling overpriced goodies.   Lucky for us, Urban Outfitters is offering customers 50% off all sale items.  Whether the object of your desire is $7 or a $100, 50% off will do you justice!

H&M:  While H&M hasn’t released their sales for Black Friday yet, they have a Black Friday presale going on between November 19th and 21st.  They’re offering deals starting at just $7!  While many retail-clothing stores aren’t revealing what they’ll have in store, I know that several lucky men and women will score H&M’s desirable collab items with Versace and Maison Martin Margiela for terrific prices.  Additionally, there’s buzz that H&M will be dropping prices for many items to just $5—seriously!

Tommy Hilfiger:  Tommy Hilfiger just revealed their exciting Black Friday deals for 2012!  All items—I repeat—all items in the store will be 40% off and all purchases over $200 will receive an additional 25% percent off!  Do not miss out!

Victoria’s Secret:  I have good news for participants of Victoria’s Secret Black Friday sale last year!  Those amazing limited edition tote bags abundantly filled with beauty must-haves will again be given out to customers this year when at least $65 is spent!  Last year, the bag alone was valued at $70!  While Victoria’s Secret hasn’t revealed their deals for Black Friday, I am sure they will be worthwhile!  Additionally, if it’s anything like last year, customers shopping online will be given the opportunity to receive the limited edition totes as well!

Target:  Target is offering many drool-worthy items for phenomenal prices.  Target is the perfect place for Black Friday shopping if you’re looking for a tremendous amount of sales and a variety of items to steal—yes, steal!  The prices are so great they’re nearly a steal.  The three featured items on the website includes, the Canon T3 DSLR bundle originally $749.99 but now $499.99, the Nook Simple touch originally $99.99 but now $49.00, and the 4 GB XBox 360 Kinect Bundle originally $299.99 but now $199.99.  While these are all electronic goodies, Target will be offering deals for toys, entertainment, women apparel, men apparel, children apparel, home goods, furniture, Christmas items, and health and beauty products.  In short, if you’re heading to Target, you need to have a plan in place!  Visit the website to review ALL Black Friday deals!

Wal-Mart:  Wal-Mart promises “some of the year's best shopping values” this Black Friday 2012!  Much like Target, Wal-Mart is featuring a website page dedicated to revealing all of their well-calculated deals for consumers.  Check them out here!  (http://localad.walmart.com/Walmart/Entry/Flash?forceview=y&povid=cat1076614-env430434-module480045-lLink2&promotioncode=LA_Walmart-121123)  I think I have to agree with Wal-Mart when they say that they’re offering some of the greatest deals of the year because there are so many deals that are truly inexpensive!  To name a few, 1/4 Carat Diamond Hoop Earrings in Sterling Silver will be $38; Casio G-Shock watches will be $47, and Danskin pullovers for $6.  If you’re looking for electronics or kids toys, Wal-Mart is offering the greatest deals.  Be sure to peruse the website! 

Best Buy:  How can you not expect Best Buy to elevate the excitement and deliver some generous deals on the latest gadgets and electronics?!  Best Buy’s circular highlights include, the Canon PowerShot A2300 digital camera for just $79.99, a 10-Cup Drip Coffeemaker for $7.99, and a Samsung 28.0-Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator (Stainless-Steel) originally priced at $3,199.99 but now $1,899.99!  Now, I’m not sure if you’re looking for a refrigerator at this point, but I LOVE a good deal!  To view the rest, visit this website.  (http://blackfriday.com/stores/best-buy?store=best-buy)
