How to choose items under $50 on Black Friday
Black Friday is a great day for big-dollar items, but what about small and lower-priced items?
At first thought, you might consider it a wasted moment to spend your dollars on something cheaper when the big stuff is on sale. However, when you think about it, it does come down to percentages. If you buy 10 items where you save $10 each, that’s the same as buying one item and saving $100.
As a result, we consider this also a great time to buy gifts, stock up on stocking stuffers, and get accessories for products that you already love.
