You’ve seen the countdown on our site…heck, you probably have a reminder on your phone. But in case you’re not aware, two weeks from today is BLACK FRIDAY!
Friday, November 27 kicks off a glorious savings-packed weekend when providers bust out their best deals of the year. As we say: Prices you haven’t seen since last Black Friday and won’t see again until next Black Friday.
Deals will appear here and on our sister site, LowEndTalk, where we’ll have another fantastic MegaThread roaring along all weekends where providers drop deals…often with limited stock and short windows to jump on them.
Let’s Get Ready!
Here’s the playbook:
- Clear off your social calendar, take time off from work, have the post office hold your mail, and stock up on protein bars and energy drinks because you won’t want to leave your screen.
- Mark your calendar and set an alarm on your phone.
- Open a new browser window and put one tab on LowEndBox and one on LowEndTalk
- Save big!
It all starts November 27!
