Happy Monday, even though I'm going to talk like it's Black Friday! |
It's Medora, and yes, you heard that right. With consumers feeling squeezed this year because of the highest inflation in a generation and a gloomy economic outlook, retailers already swamped under a load of inventory are already unleashing their sales. |
So let's take a look and see what's going on with retailers and their sales strategies this year so you can nab the best prices, what consumers should think about when spending money this holiday, and if you're feeling especially gloomy, what to do to prepare for a potential recession. |
When is the best time to shop? |
It turns out retailers have been rolling out sales earlier and earlier now for years, but experts say the best sales are still to come the week of Thanksgiving (hint: next week). |
To take full advantage, start preparing this week, experts say. The biggest electronics discounts are expected to be on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving Thursday. If all that turkey eating slowed you down, and you missed the early doorbusters, don't worry. Experts say you can get a second chance on Cyber Monday, the Monday after Thanksgiving. And since it's all online, you don't even have to get out of your pajamas! Who doesn't like the sound of that? |
