Black Friday 2018

We are entering the final days before the mad dash for the best Black Friday deals and doorbusters, and the excitement to get the hottest tech deals is reaching a whole new level. Most Black Friday shoppers know that Black Friday 2018 is November 23, the day after Thanksgiving, and they've marked their calendars, explored the Black Friday ad, started lists and laid plans. Savvy shoppers know that getting the very best Black Friday deals before they sell out usually involves setting the alarm clock for the crack of dawn and drinking several cups of coffee. Not everyone knows, however, that it is also possible to start the shopping extravaganza on Thanksgiving Day, when select offers are available both online and in a Best Buy store near you. Even if you prefer to relax after your turkey dinner and pumpkin pie, before getting into shopping mode, there will be plenty of Black Friday deals available throughout Thursday and Friday, and even after the weekend during the Cyber Monday 2018 sale.

While many Black Friday shoppers truly enjoy the buzz of a busy store, and the instant gratification of filling their carts with all the deals they've scored, there are just as many people who would prefer to skip the chaos and shop online from the comfort of home. There are some real perks to filling a virtual shopping cart instead of a physical one during Black Friday, including skipping the long lines and crowded aisles, as well as having your purchases delivered to your door instead of figuring out how to fit all your Black Friday finds into your car. Shipping to multiple locations is also an option, so if you have friends and family out of state, you can ship holiday gifts directly to their door. Or you can order online and pick up at a store near you when the crowds have diminished a bit. An additional benefit of shopping Black Friday online is seeing a digital running total of your cart, so you know if you have room to add more great Black Friday deals before checking out.

Why do so many people turn to Best Buy for some of the best Black Friday shopping around? It's the selection. You've probably heard of the incredible Black Friday deals on TVs, laptops, tablets, gaming consoles, and phones, but did you also know that the deals extend to appliances, cameras, drones, printers, toys, smartwatches, movies, music, and so much more. Interested in new technology like smart home products or virtual reality devices? You can find deals on those too. Black Friday 2018 is the perfect time to save on items that have been on your wish list, or to find new gift ideas for holiday gifts for others. And don't forget that during the Black Friday event, you can usually save big on accessories like cases, screen protectors, chargers, cables, TV mounts, and a variety of other products that can ensure your new tech is protected and running smoothly. We've put together a few other helpful Black Friday tips you can check out before the shopping marathon to help make 2018 your most successful Black Friday yet.
