Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving and the beginning of Christmas shopping season. This year Black Friday falls on November 23rd, when shoppers invade brick-and-mortar and online shopping sites taking advantage of the competion between stores to promote the best deals of the year. This tradition has been observed by retailers since the 1930's. Black Friday, one of the busiest shopping days of the year, is a day off from work for millions of Americans and offers a great opportunity to start shopping for the Chrismas holidays.
Cyber Monday is the Monday after Black Friday. Since 2005 Cyber Monday has become a big online shopping day when shoppers continue their bargain hunting using their computers at work, mobile devices and laptops to buy goods online. Cyber Monday deals often extend over several days, but the best bargains are usually found on Cyber Monday.
Holiday Shopping Tips for Online Shoppers...
Follow these online Christmas holiday shopping tips for the best deals:
• When visiting an online store, read their return policy. Check when you can return an item and if you can get a full refund. Big retailers may let you return items in-store. Others may charge a restocking fee or require you to pay for the return shipping.
• Take advantage of free shipping offers. As shipping costs increase the free or discounted shipping deals can make a real difference in your savings. Check here often to find the best shipping deals as they change frequently.
•
Use online coupons and check for expiration dates. Some coupons are good for only one day or could last for months. Online merchants offer discount coupons for price drops, either storewide or for individual products. Some coupons offer free or reduced rate shipping, many coupon deals offer free gifts. Coupon codes are listed for the stores that offer them at Mile Hi Mall. Some coupons are built into the link and show up automatically at checkout. Other coupon codes are published here so you can copy & paste them into your order when prompted at checkout.
•
Credit Card Cash Back - Some credit cards offer cash back for shopping at certain retailers. For each purchase, you earn a certain amount of points. Make your large purchases first so you can later redeem those points for last minute gifts or gift cards.
•
Shop on websites you can trust. If you’re shopping somewhere outside a major retailer, the Better Business Bureau lets you search businesses by their domain name. At Mile Hi Mall, we have already done that for you, but conditions can change quickly. So, it's always good to check out a merchant you are unfamiliar with.
•
Secure Shopping Cart. Check to make sure you are on a secure web page when you arrive at a merchant's checkout. Look at the address bar in your browser, usually at the top of your screen. A secure, encrypted page will have a URL that begins with 'https'. The 's' is the part you want to see before proceding with your purchase.
•
Order early. Because of heavy online traffic during the holiday season, it’s best to shop early, so you don’t experience any shipment problems or back orders. Alway check with the merchant's delivery schedule before you complete your order.
•
Shop safely, drive safely and have a Happy Holiday!
