Stay Online and Avoid Crowds
Black Friday can be hectic in shops, especially if you’re pregnant or have a little one. To save yourself from this stress, opt for doing your shopping online.
Most shops will give you the same deals online and in-store, so you won’t miss out on anything.
Plus, this allows you more opportunities to shop around and ensures you get the best deals.
Think About Christmas Gifts
With Black Friday being so close to Christmas, it’s a no-brainer… plan out Christmas gifts!
As a new or expecting parent, your wallet might be tighter than usual, so taking advantage of these deals is a great way to purchase your family and friends’ presents.
Although these deals mainly focus on getting things for your baby, it’s a great opportunity to think about other expensive items like Christmas presents, as this is only a month away!

Although the official date for Black Friday is the 24th, deals run from the 17th to the 27th, so you have ten days to get your deals without rushing.
With these top tips in mind, you’ll have a successful Black Friday and get the deals and discounts you need! Happy shopping!
