The Covid-19 pandemic sure has changed the way the Holidays play out, this year. For me, the slow-down has been a blessing. My heart aches for those who have lost loved ones this year, but the actual slower pace to how we live has helped my family reconnect and, literally, slow down. We definitely don’t take things for granted anymore! Black Friday is going to look a lot different in many areas. We’re not going out this year but may take advantage of some online deals. Speaking of that, I have some great Black Friday freebies for you all, courtesy of Sara Skirboll, Shopping and Trends Expert at The Real Deal Blog
Until 10 a.m. on Black Friday last year, you could enjoy a buy-one-get-one-free-drink offer at Starbucks. (This was the deal last year, stay tuned to see what they will be offering in 2020.)
From Nov. 4 until Dec. 24, Belk shoppers will have a chance at getting their entire order (limited to $575) for free if using curbside pickup. But that’s not all. Shoppers will receive an extra 10% off with free in-store or contactless curbside pickup.
This year, the two sister stores are hosting a Santa’s Wonderland! You can get a free photo with Santa (safely) when you make a reservation.
You can get free coffee until December 31 with no purchase necessary. Amazing!
Starting on Thanksgiving through November 29, they will be giving away a Weekender Bag when you make an online purchase of $39+ and use the promo code BFSPECIAL.
When you spend $100+ on Black Friday in the home, apparel or electronics departments, you will earn a $20 coupon! They will also have a gift card giveaway every 15 minutes from 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.–good luck!
Until November 29, this book store will be giving out a $100 gift card to customers! Enter each day for a chance to win.
Show up in-store early (doors open at 2 p.m.) on Thursday, November 28, and you could be entered in a coupon giveaway consisting of a $500 off $500 coupon, $100 off $100 coupon and $10 off $10 coupon. (This was the deal last year, stay tuned to see what they will be offering in 2020.)
Kohl’s is raining down the Kohl’s Cash this Black Friday! They’re offering extra bonuses on select purchases.
Macy’s is promoting free in-store doorbusters after mail-in rebate. You can grab pearl earrings, pillows, a coffee maker, slowcookers, glassware sets and more under this offer. Caveat: You have to be at the store by 5 p.m. to get these deals.
Get a free gift every day through December 24 when you’re one of the first 50 shoppers to opt for curbside pickup.
If you make a fragrance purchase on Black Friday, you can score a free plush robe. Because you can never have enough self-care products!
The first 100 customers in store on Friday, Saturday and Sunday get a $10 gift certificate and a free tote bag. They are closed on Thanksgiving. (This was the deal last year, stay tuned to see what they will be offering in 2020.)
