Maybe my family is weird. After all the Turkey is done, we sit around the table and get out the paper (about the only one I buy each year) to plot the day ahead – Black Friday. My daughter has even joined the fun the last few years – despite her not being a morning person AT ALL. But, with the promise of a Starbucks to start her 4 a.m. day she can handle it.
Target First Tuesday FREE Day. Tuesday, December 1, head over to the Children’s Museum of Denver for FREE admission from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. to check-out the $16 million expansion.
Black Friday Festivities:
- Outlets at Castle Rock – On top of the center’s daily commitment to 30-70% off retail prices – Outlets at Castle Rock’s Moonlight Madness sale promises a fun, family-friendly late-night shopping experience for the whole family. Starting Thanksgiving night and running throughout the weekend, shoppers are invited to enjoy: Hourly prizes and trip giveaways, Street party performers including jugglers, roving magicians, balloon artists and face painters, DJ’s and live music from Mass Hipsteria, a pancake breakfast from Flippin’ Flapjacks on Friday starting at 7:30 a.m. Special deals including Ann Taylor Factory – 60% Off Entire Store, Le Creuset – 40% Off, Gap – 50% Off, Restoration Hardware – 30% Off, and many, many more!
- Best Buy – I recently read that electronics are not a great deal on Black Friday. I beg to differ. The Best Buy ad is chock-full of great TV deals.
- Target. Spend $75 on Black Friday get a coupon for 20% off on your next trip (Dec 4-13) or spend $100 Saturday on Holiday Shop you will get $50 with coupon. Speaking of coupons, make sure to clip them as you will get Target gift cards with purchases of Apple Watch, iPhone and iPad.
- WalMart – WalMart also has TVs on sale (some start as early as 6 p.m. on Thursday evening), select DVDs for as low as $1.96 and light sabers for just $5. I know I will get my daughter a set of PJ’s for just $10!

Online Sales. It used to be that the only way to score a deal was to be at a store at 4 a.m. on Black Friday. But now, there are several great scores for online sales. Amazon and Overstock promise great deals. But also brick-and-mortar stores like Best Buy and Costco will offer online only specials (with FREE shipping) on Thanksgiving day and Black Friday.
