On this, the busiest shopping day of the year, which stores will Americans flock to? Will they shop based on need or value?
Inc.com says while 78% of Americans expect to spend the same or more on holiday gifts this year, many are hoping to buy cheaper presents. 64% of respondents to the poll said their first or second stop would be discount stores this year.
I am working, so I don't have the luxury of shopping today, but all of my friends that are braving the madness, mapped out their day according to the best bargains. Where are some of the best bargains this season? Especially ones into the weekend for those of us not able to get today.
I've been trying for ages to get my husband to spend less at Christmas. Each year it sinks in a little more, but he readily admits that his ideal Christmas is one with tons of great presents under the tree. It's a challenge, but he is starting to understand there's more to the holiday than spending a ton of money.
