The Best Black Friday Deals On Amazon
There are two types of people in this world: the people who look forward to Thanksgiving for the family time and the festivities, and the people who look forward to Thanksgiving being over so that the shopping for weird but genius products on Black Friday can begin. OK, maybe that's unfair, I guess it can be you... and also you, we're complex, dynamic people.
So whether Black Friday is your sole Thanksgiving fuel or whether it's a bonus to your already amazing weekend, you're going to want to check out some of the deals on Amazon. Because no matter how much you love those in-store deals, you can't possibly love the lines and the chaos that come with it. After all, the mall situation on Black Friday is pure pandemonium: Everyone's tired, coming down from a turkey overdose, and no one is on their best behavior. There's pushing, there's shoving, there's shouting, there's waiting, and there's also the possibility that what you've woken up at 4 a.m. to attempt to purchase is sold out, and you won't realize that until 9 a.m. when you finally make it inside. So, play it safe, and enjoy Black Friday from the comfort of your living room.
And before you attack your wish list, you're going to want to check out these weird but genius things that are on sale thanks to Amazon's Black Friday deals. Maybe you didn't know you needed these things before, but certainly, you know you need them now.
