Every school year, students are given three days off in the fall to celebrate Thanksgiving with their family. For some, this is a special time to see their families and give thanks. For others, Thanksgiving signifies the day before Black Friday, the biggest event of the year for chronic shoppers like myself. Some Black Friday deals are impossible to pass up, while others are impossible to find. To get the best deals quickly and efficiently, follow this short Black Friday guide!
CLOTHING
Gymshark- Up to 70% off online orders. Items sell out QUICKLY here. I recommend creating an account so that you can add items to your wish list before the sale and then have your order ready once everything is live.
Aerie- Different clothing types are going to be different sales here. Leggings are up to 60% off, and all sweaters will be up to 40% off. There are a few other deals for different items at Aerie, but these two were the biggest sales.
