Even in a slumping economy, Black Friday is still one of the biggest, traditional shopping days out of the entire year. People wait for weeks to find out the best deals in stores, and some even sleep outside of the store the night before the opening of the doors.

And walking through those magical store doors isn’t the only way to get a deal either.

Stores are going online for Black Friday too. So if you don’t feel like waking up at four a.m. to catch a great deal, then it would be wise to just sit in the comfort of your own home, and buy what you want online. Some may start the sales as early as Thanksgiving, though keep in mind that last year they didn’t start to post the great deals until Friday afternoon.

Walmart and Target are always hot spots for finding the best deals of Black Friday, but just be aware that the crowd outside of these stores is tremendous, so it would be best to get there early.

All of the name brand stores always have pretty good sales going on, so if you wanna find the best deals this year, go to a store that you’re familiar with.

The new Window’s 7 is hitting stores soon too, so make sure to check out the electronic stores this year.
