Black Friday 2011: Walmart Ad

My idea of great shopping is chillin’ at home with my laptop and a cup of coffee 😀  What I love about Black Friday is that the great deals have expanded to being available online, as well as, in-store.  I thought it would be helpful to post some of the major stores’ Black Friday deals, along with a few tips and tricks for navigating the busiest shopping day of the year!

The sale on toys, home goods, and apparel begins at 10 pm 11/24.  Midnight on 11/25 brings the sale on electronics, and the rest of the deals (gifts for the family, electronics, and more) will begin at 8 am.

Walmart promises to match the price of any local competitor’s printed ad for an identical product, including matching competitor’s deals for the day after Thanksgiving.

Walmart is also helping shoppers plan their in-store shopping strategy by making available store-specific maps on Facebook. To access the map, shoppers simply need to find their favorite store by clicking on the “My Local Walmart” application on Walmart’s Facebook page.

Here are my favorite in-store deals:

Kids Character Sleepwear Sets – $4.47
