Next, go over your list with the money conscious in the family, he or she can help you stay within your budget. Also, if you plan on shopping sooner rather than later (like during Thanksgiving or afterward), be sure that you know for sure whether waiting will benefit you. Take a sneak peek at Black Friday and Cyber Monday circulars in advance. Avoid long lines and crowds since many retailers plan to limit the stock anyway. You might get a better deal online like during Cyber Monday particularly if the item didn't sell so well during the Thanksgiving holiday.
