BLACK FRIDAY
Most of the ads are out now on the Black Friday sites. Perusing through some of them I found some good deals, most a smidgen better than you’d find during the year. The best deals are for appliances, laptops/PCs, and toys. If you don’t need them, you can save 100% by staying home.
Usually Ace Hardware has freebies. None this year unless you use the $5 off $25 purchase coupon found in the Entertainment book. (Click here to get the Entertainment book for 20% off: ENTERTAINMENT BOOK DEAL)
Walgreens, CVS, and Rite Aid have a bunch of freebies. Some have a limit of more than one. I may stop to make my purchases at midnight. Some stores like Walgreens have deals that start on Thanksgiving.
Avoid the crowds and shop online. Many stores are offering free shipping. You may have a better chance purchasing the item online than in the store.
For instance, here are the Walgreens Black Friday deals plus get a $10 off a $50 purchase using code TENOFF at: WALGREENS.COM
Another ploy that may or may not work is to find a nice cozy place in the store to bed up for the night. When the doors open you’ll be first to get to the best deals! Perhaps the cotton ball section or bread section will be the softest to sleep on. But don’t sleep through the opening! To be sure you don’t make sure to set some of the alarm clocks in the Electronics department to go off before the store opens.
Or go to the bathroom and take one long dippity doo. If someone notices you there, tell them you’re Mr/Mrs Smith and you will be out when you wrap things up. There is bound to be a Smith that works in a store.
Or if you grease yourself up – clothing optional – you can slip through any crowd and get whatever you want at the store. Then again you may find the county jail to not be as soft as the bread section.

BBB
With all the brouhaha about their integrity issues with their rating system, they decided to do away with awarding higher rating just because a business paid to be accredited with BBB. They will also have an independent third party review their accrediting procedure. I rate that an A. But for waiting this long to fix it, an F.
