Should you care about Black Friday? If you’ve been hankering for a pricey appliance like a Vitamix or even a KitchenAid, love the thrill of a good deal (and don’t mind the emotionally taxing journey to get there), or just find online shopping relaxing: Sure. This coming Friday, November 29, is the official shopping holiday, with Cyber Monday following on December 2 (and sales running in between). But countless brands and stores have been touting all their major deals for several weeks now, and plenty of stuff’s already on sale.
So what are the decent (or even legitimately good) deals, what should you bother buying, and when should you tackle it? We’ve attempted to gather up some useful intel for the food-loving and cooking-inclined shoppers out there. Godspeed.
