Best Buys on Electronics

There is a great article on Yahoo right now about Black Friday specials on Electronics. Visit http://shopping.yahoo.com/articles/yshoppingarticles/170/10-best-bets-for-black-friday/ to learn more.

Also, Macy's is having a 60% to 90% off sale on their clearance clothing through today. There was a coupon in yesterday's Santa Barbara News Press.

If you are a crafter, I recommend that you sign up for the email newsletters from Michaels craft store. They are starting to send out some great coupons, and since it is far less expensive to manage an email list, they seem to be switching to email coupons from weekly newspaper circular coupons.

If you plan on doing your Thanksgiving day grocery shopping today, you will need to purchase a fresh turkey. There is no safe way to defrost a frozen turkey now. Be sure to take out the bag of giblets inside. Also, be prepared for long lines at the grocery store and in the parking lot. Vons is having a special - buy $25 worth of groceries and buy a turkey for $7.88. Even if you can't defrost it for Thanksgiving, you will be able to take advantage of all the inexpensive protien over the next few weeks.

Long's Drugs After Thanksgiving sale

Here is the first Black Friday circular to hit my mailbox. Longs Drugs has beat all of their competitors in getting the mail out. They open at 7am. It has been my experience that you don't need to get up that early to visit Long's on Black Friday. I've gotten there before noon, and they had plenty of Black Friday specials left. I don't see any earlybird specials either, so plan on visiting Longs on your way home.
