Ah, Black Friday! ‘Tis the season where you get bombarded with promotional emails but instead of dragging those right into the trash (Ooops..guilty!), you skim through it with glee. Who doesn’t love a good deal, right? But while it is an exciting time to go out there and get good deals, the prepping part can be extremely overwhelming. Don’t you worry! We’ve got you covered. We’ve come up with 3 strategies (tested!) to help you survive this shopping spree fiasco.
Make A List and Set A Budget
So many things to decide, so little time! Making a list and organizing it on your phone or your planner will come in handy. This will help you spend less time hunching over your computer or phone screen and you'll be less likely to experience a buyer’s hangover, where you realize you probably don’t need those 20 sheet masks from MaskerAide (you probably do, we know we do!). Bonus tip! Use your phone if you own one, and put everything in one app. This prevents you from going from one page to the other. No doubt, a time saver!
Stick To Your List
Avoid impulse purchases. Now, this is probably challenging but sticking to your list ensures you don’t overspend on Black Friday. Do you really need another coffee maker? Or a $10 cake pop maker? Chances are, you don’t. Ask yourself, “does this spark joy?”, probably not. Channel your inner Marie Kondo and only purchase things that will spark joy in the long run.

Be Polite And Go Have Fun!
Black Friday madness is real. If you’ve ever worked in the customer service industry before, you know that it is fun to work during this time of the year, but it can also get pretty stressful. If there are things you can’t find, ask for things politely and be respectful of other customers’ and employees’ time.
We know these times can get stressful and what better way to unwind after a long day of shopping than a bubble bath and a MaskerAide mask or two! Our very own Black Friday Sales is live tomorrow! Don’t forget to check out our biggest sale of the year & good luck! We hope our masks are on your list. *wink*
