Black Friday is coming and it's probably the closest we will ever get to experiencing the stereotypical zombie hysteria charge. People screaming and running for the "deal of the year" on ps4's and xbox1's, TV's and movies, as well as toys are us ( don't go to Toys R Us, it will be horrific). For those of you brave enough to trek out into the cold November morning ( or in some places just hours after the turkeys carved) here are some tips to help you survive.
1: Be prepared!
Bring a jacket, red bull, Tylenol, defibrillators, running shoes, granola bars, and anything else you may want. If you think you need it bring it. The malls a battle field and the old lady holding the last ps4 is your foe, go on. You can take her. But seriously so many people stay out until 5am, bring a back pack and fill it with provisions.
2: Have a Plan and Extra Money!
Simplify. Your list should be at most 10 things with at most 3 high priority items (TV, bluray, camera, xbox1, etc). I say this because there are so many people hunting for these items you'll want to focus on your most desired item first because the TVs at Walmart will run out. Have a route mapped out in your head so you don't waste time back tracking and can get everything you need in one solid swoop. And have extra money. You never know what you'll see on your journey into the abyss.
3: Don't Hope for too Much!
It's going to be crazy. You probably will not get everything you want. So if you don't get that dress, movie, or bluray player, it's ok. There are more sales. Just breath and let it go.
It's going to get crazy. So be prepared to face the fray. Good luck!
Cheers,
