Personally, I've never done the Black Friday sales (in the stores anyway). Getting out of bed in the freezing cold at 3 in the morning, and standing in a mile long line to get $100 off an ipod isn't really my thing. However, I gladly participate from the comfort of my own home, where it is warm, I can do it in my pajamas, and people aren't trampling over each other's heads to get the last Guitar Hero - or whatever it is you people wait eight years in line for.
Whichever way you indulge in the weekend sales, it is still a daunting task. Which stores are having the best sales? Which sales are only on Friday? Which ones go all weekend? Which stores are having sales at all? Ahhh! It's like homework! Which is why a study guide would make perfect sense. The geniuses at College Fashion has been so lovely as to take the time to organize all the stores, and their deals, by date. God Bless them. What are you waiting for?? START SHOPPING!
