Four Great Ways to Make the Most of Black Friday and Cyber Monday

Of course, by ‘making the most’ of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we mean getting the lowest prices on all the goodies you have your eye on. Whether it’s a bag of luxurious Panama Geisha coffee beans or the latest bean-to-cup machine from a leading brand, it’s all right there for the taking. 

However, taking a strategic approach to Black Friday sales and Cyber Monday deals can make a real difference. As is always the case with such things, the most useful insights are those that come directly from experienced retailers themselves.

So what does the typical retailer say about making the most of Black Friday deals and Cyber Monday deals? From ultra-exclusive Panama Geisha coffee beans (also known as Gesha coffee) to the latest gadgets and coffee-making technology, what do you need to do to ensure you get an unbeatable deal this year?

1) Start Early

Most experts agree that the single most important thing you need to do is start early. Everything without exception that’s discounted and desirable on Black Friday or Cyber Monday will be available in strictly limited quantities. That’s more or less the whole point of sales like these, so you need to be quick off the mark to take advantage of them. Many deals and discounts are wiped out before Black Friday sales or Cyber Monday deals formally start, so plan ahead to avoid missing out.

2) Subscribe to Mailing Lists and Loyalty Programs

As is the case throughout the year, many retailers direct their most attractive deals and discounts exclusively at their loyal customers and subscribers. This means that unless you are on their mailing list or a member of their loyalty program, you may be excluded from their best deals entirely. Hence, even if it means signing up on a strictly temporary basis, doing so could score you access to far more attractive Black Friday deals and Cyber Monday deals with your chosen stores.

3) Shop Online and Avoid the Crowds

For the vast majority of retailers, it is easier and more cost-effective to sell products online. Precisely why some of the biggest deals and discounts available on both of these annual events are exclusive to online shoppers. Statistically speaking, you are far more likely to get your hands on whatever it is you want at a price you are happy with by shopping for it online. Plus, it’s a significantly less stressful (and perhaps even dangerous) experience than fighting through the crowds on the big day.

4) Set Your Budget and Shopping List in Advance

Last up, going at Black Friday or Cyber Monday hell for leather is a recipe for disaster. Irrespective of how cheap everything may be, buying more than you wanted or needed to means ultimately coming out with a lighter wallet. If there’s one thing all experts agree on, it’s the importance of setting a finite budget and only buying things that are actually on your shopping list. Deviate from either and even the biggest deals of the year can quickly take a toll on your finances!
