5 Things Not to Do on Black Friday-黑色星期五不要做的五樣事

1. Know what not to shop for.- 知道不該買的東西

Just because Black Friday is known for deep discounts doesn’t mean you’ll get a discount on what you need. DealNews.com tracks sales all year round to predict trends and prepared a list of products that don't go on sale the day after Thanksgiving.

Don’t bother looking for bargains on furniture, chocolate, exercise equipment or designer clothes. Those are best bought at other times of the year. Who knew?!

2. Don’t buy cheesy products just because they’re cheap. 別買劣等貨, 只因便宜

ConsumerWorld.org makes an excellent point: “A low price on a lousy product is no bargain.” 

3. Don’t go to the store.

The website suggests you research your online options in advance, rather than leaving your doorbuster scores to chance.

4. Don’t stand in line in the cold. 別在寒冷天氣中排隊

 Some superstores offer price matching, so while other shoppers are standing in long lines to get into their favorite toy or electronic stores, she cozily strolls the aisles at Walmart snagging the same deals.

Here is her article about snagging Walmart deals this year. Andhere is Target’s holiday price matching policy.

5. Don’t go on Black Friday!

 “Some stores are staggering the release of their doorbusters at different times… If you don't read their circulars carefully, you could show up on the wrong day or the wrong time.”
