What to Buy on Black Friday

This is a great time to buy electronics and toys. Particularly, pay attention to deals on headphones, TVs, tablets, cameras, appliances, and video games. Cyber Monday, which offers online-only deals the Monday after Thanksgiving, tends to offer better deals on laptops and smartphones.

Make a Plan for Black Friday

Have an idea of what you want to purchase on Black Friday, and then use the previously mentioned apps and websites for browsing all of the best deals. Narrow your search to the specific items you want and compare prices. Make a plan for Black Friday: which items you want, which stores have these items, how much the items are, which items are a priority, and when you should be at each store. Keep in mind that for many big-name stores, people form lines as early as 3 a.m., while some stores begin Black Friday deals at midnight or on Thursday evening. Once you know which stores you need to go to, do some research to find out when you should arrive so that you’ll get the deal you want.

Be Cautious This Holiday Season

When downloading apps from the Play store, be cautious as to which apps you download for online shopping. Malicious apps often mimic popular apps in name, design, and language. These apps can steal your personal or credit card information, or install malware or spyware onto your device. Avoid downloading any apps that have few reviews, seem “off” in language and design, or request unnecessary permissions from your device. To further protect your device while shopping online, download antivirus software. PSafe Total protects your device against security threats and malware 24/7.
