13 Tips for Saving Money on Black Friday and Cyber Monday

Sign Up for Newsletters and Follow Brands on Social Media

Get the inside scoop on Black Friday deals and specials ahead of everyone else by signing up for retail newsletters, says Kendal Perez of CouponSherpa. “Create a separate email account for these promotions so they don’t clutter up your personal inbox and consider unsubscribing after the holidays so you’re not tempted to spend during the rest of the year,” Perez says.

Flash sales are not uncommon on Black Friday and throughout the weekend, Perez says. Brands will use Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and other channels to get the word out about last-minute deals, so make sure to follow your favorite brands.
