What do you do on Black Friday? Do you get up early (or stay up late) for Black Friday shopping, or do you avoid stores like the plague?
My only attempt at Black Friday shopping many years ago resulted in me skipping the attempt at shopping and spending the day at BW3’s.
I’ll still shop on Friday, but it’s from the comfort of my couch and laptop, where I find nearly as good deals as I would in store. In-store shoppers do have more of a chance to get bonus offers and door-busters, and many love the thrill of the hunt.
If shopping on Black Friday is your thing, go for it. But if you don’t want to, you’ll still be able to get some great deals shopping online or on other days.

Homage
Everyone loves Homage (wearing a shirt as I type this)! Get 20% off through Saturday at Homage.com and retail locations. I LOVE their Grateful Dead x NFL and NBA line! They also have a line of “New Heights” shirts (iykyk), so if you know of any reallllly new Chiefs fans (particularly if they’ve never watched football before), Homage has the perfect option.
*20 off offer applies to items on HOMAGE.COM and at HOMAGE retail locations. Offer valid Thursday, November 23, 2023 at 12:00am ET through Saturday, November 25, 2023 at 11:59pm ET. Discount applies at checkout.
Not valid with any other offers, discounts, or promotions. Offer valid while supplies last. Select items available only online.
Shop Local
Before all, we recommend that you shop local where possible. Local shops will probably offer sales over the weekend for Black Friday or Small Business Saturday, so give them a chance!
Another great place to shop is at holiday art and craft markets. There are still plenty to shop at this holiday season – see our list of holiday craft shows here!
Make sure you check out our Columbus Gift Guide for other local shopping options! The guide also includes a list of suggested experience and membership gifts, and many of these will offer special pricing from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, so check them out!
If you have a favorite local store, they are likely offering some sort of Black Friday/Cyber Monday, so make sure you check there first!
