Here’s a new holiday tradition to try: Say grace, eat turkey, head to the mall.
this year at some of the regions biggest stores, including Walmart, Target, Kohl’s and Best Buy.
We’ve read through the ads and compiled everything you need for the best all-night holiday shopping blow-out possible. And for each sale, we've highlighted the items we think would make the best gifts (at the best prices!)
Check back on Black Friday for updates and tips, and if you hit the sales, tag your tweets with #BlackFridaySTL or mention @StLouisLindsay.
And don't forget: Black Friday sales are already starting online at popular big box stores. Best Buy said they've already sold out of popular $80 TVs and $150 laptops, but there are plenty of other deals to be had. Our tip? If you can't find what you awnt, refresh the page often. Stores are updating as they go.
