Black Friday refers to the Friday that falls right after Thanksgiving, which is typically the fourth Thursday in November. And on this day, retailers inaugurate their holiday shopping season. This year, Black Friday falls on November 29th, which means it’s actually much closer to Christmas. So, you’re not going to have too much time on your hands to shop for the festive season.

Black Friday deals are popularly called “doorbusters” because the price cuts are so massive that customers are likely to break down doors to enter shops.

What to watch out for on Black Friday 2019
The Black Friday weekend is not simply a four-day shopping extravaganza, and this is because the deals are not always launched at convenient timings. For instance, you may find excellent deals on TVs at odd hours, which means you need to be flexible to enjoy the advantages. Some retailers may start to offer Black Friday 2019 deal previews much ahead of their launches. While many of these deals are already exciting, you can expect the prices to drop even further as the day draws closer. So, it could be a better idea to wait for the best prices, when you can afford to be patient.

According to industry sources, the best Black Friday deals will be on laptops, smartphones, mattresses, headphones, smartwatches, tabs, TVs, and other small appliances. Some e-commerce sites have come up with many new smart-home products that are likely to undergo huge price-cuts on the occasion of Black Friday 2019. So, why wait to plan? If you know exactly what you need to buy this Thanksgiving, you should make a list, wait for the prices to drop, and then grab the best deals before they disappear.

Things to buy when you find Black Friday deals
Previously, TVs and laptops were the hot sellers for Black Friday sales. These still continue to have an appeal amongst shoppers, but now, retailers offer discounts on practically all types of consumer-technology gadgets. The idea is to draw more and more buyers; so, you will find hard-to-resist deals on headphones and consoles, while the steepest waivers continue to be on the laptops and TVs. As far as TVs go, the price-cuts are now not restricted to off-brand televisions as even the top-end brands offer exciting deals on their models, whether it is the off-brand model or high-end OLED.

Black Friday deals you should be away from
While everything may be for low prices on the occasion of Black Friday, it may not be a good idea to purchase anything you find on discounted prices. Some deals are gimmicks and intended to dupe the buyer. For instance, “early bird” deals are promoted by retailers to make sure you are in the queue by 6 pm on Thanksgiving, and then you find that the product on offer is available in very limited quantities. So, you end up scouring the city for stores that will have the product so that you can avail of the deal. Interestingly, there are some retail stores that offer “in-store” sales online much before these have been announced in the physical stores. If you are willing to take the chance, you may actually be able to stay at home and enjoy the biggest shopping deals!
