Black Friday 2020: How Shopping Will Be Different
As we're all well aware of, 2020 has been a different kind of year. So, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping will see some changes. This holiday shopping is far from canceled, but here are some things you can expect as we enter the fall season.
1. Increased Online Black Friday Sales
Used to waking up (way too early) and waiting in long lines to get the best deals? No need to do that this year! Black Friday shopping from home is becoming more of a reality. Many retailers will now be offering more online Black Friday deals. This is to cut down on foot traffic during the pandemic and a general shift to online shopping. So, grab your coffee, cozy up to your fire, and get those deals from the comfort of your home!
2. Longer Black Friday Sale Periods
Typically, Black Friday sales have lasted only for one weekend. One amazing thing about 2020 holiday shopping sales is that many are being extended! Many fall sales have already been announced, such as Amazon's Prime Day in October and Walmart's 'Big Save' Event. If you're looking for bridesmaid dresses, Kennedy Blue is having a $99 sale that lasts for the entirety of November! Sign up now for early access. (Photo by: Danielle Hickman)
3. Stores Closures for Thanksgiving Day
Black Friday is back to happening on Friday! Many of the large retailers, like Target and Walmart, have announced their store closures for Thanksgiving Day. This allows a reduction of foot traffic amidst the pandemic, all while encouraging employees to enjoy the holiday. With store closures, online savings, and store closures - take time to enjoy a relaxing Thanksgiving Day. There will be lots of time for online shopping!
