POP 5 Do’s & Don’ts of Black Friday Shopping

‘Tis the season for Black Friday shopping, yet they should almost alter the name due to stores opening as early as 6pm on Thanksgiving Day. These early Christmas deals have consumers of all ages placing their turkeys back in the freezer, just so they can line up early at Best Buy for a brand new television or gaming system, (and even those five dollar crock-pots at Wal-Mart). We’ve all seen the terrifying aftermath photos on the news and even the Youtube videos that have gone viral due to the madness breaking out when the doors open. THEPOPFIX wants to assist you in your deal-finding frenzy by delivering our POP 5 Do’s & Don’ts of Black Friday Shopping.

Also, I want to give a special shout out to my friendly and feisty co-stars, Cat Paws, for helping me with the countdown.
