Black Friday is a sprint, not a marathon, so I’m going to help you prepare for the biggest shopping day of the year!
This post is sponsored by Walmart and SheKnows Media, but all opinions are 100% my own.
I‘ve been doing a lot of research on Black Friday this year, and I’m telling you, the deals are beyond epic.
I had the opportunity to get a super secret sneak peek at Walmart’s Black Friday deals when I visited their offices about a month ago.
We heard from their experts on what the hottest items will be for this holiday season. We got to touch, feel and play with all of the samples they brought in! Not only was it super fun, but I basically made my family gift list while I was there (and added a few “wish list” items of my own as well!)
Walmart has made Black Friday shopping easy by preparing for everything shoppers might need, so you want to make sure you are ready to rock the shopping with a few simple steps.
Enjoy your family Thanksgiving dinner. Go heavy on the protein and light on the carbs. This will give you the endurance you need to power through the store in record time!
Dress Down. Ditch the Thanksgiving fancies and throw on your comfortable clothes… sneakers are a MUST!
Make your list and check it twice! – Trust me friend you want to be armed to get exactly what items you are looking for. Grab them first and browse later!
Download the Walmart App and plot out your game of attack. You can find the exact location of all of your most-wanted items on the app! It will show you right where to find them in the store!
Grab a friend! Not only is shopping more fun with a friend, but you can also split up your list and divide and conquer the store!
Skip the Checkout Lines! Be on the lookout for the “Checkout with Me Associates” stationed throughout the store! Check out with Me associates have adaptable mobile registers for those guests with just a few items to purchase to help make checkout faster than ever!
You are ready!! Now…go get those deal!
Walmart’s Black Friday sale starts at 6:00 PM on Thanksgiving night, Thursday, November 22, 2018, except where prohibited by law. To be sure, please check your local store for their hours.
