We are just one week away from the biggest shopping day of the year. Well, that is what all the marketing people tell us. Crowds storm shopping malls all across the United States for that great deal. or that must have Christmas present.

The day after Thanksgiving when all the retail stores say that they have their biggest savings deals for the Christmas season. Crowds of people line up outside malls all across the United States and Canada to rush in for those big savings, when the doors open.

The truth be known, those same deals, if not better deals can be found at different times through out the years. Then there is purchase Christmas gifts online can also save you a few dollars more.

This is where a recon can save you hundreds of dollar. All it takes is a few simple steps.
- How Much Money is in the Budget for Christmas gift. I will definitely recommend no credit cards, just cash on hand. One of the major reasons we have got our economy in such bad shape has been by running up all that credit debt.
- Who Gets a Gift List - Start with a list of who you are going to give gifts to this Christmas.
- Research what deals are going to be available on Black Friday. Yes you can find out what is going to be available. You don’t have to jump from one stores website or another. Just go to BlackFriday2009. com.
- Take a Shopping List this will help you from getting suck into buying something you did not plan on getting.
- Take Only the Money you plan to spend. Even if you are tempted to buy something not on your shopping list, if you do not have the money, you cannot buy it.,
BlackFriday2009.com is not the only website that you can go to to plan your Black Friday shopping. There are several others. BlackFriday.info gives you early Black Friday deals. BFads.net is another listing of Black Friday sales.

Now a little fireside advice while your putting together your list. Just because it says it is a sale and a great deal does not make it a great deal. We still have almost a month of shopping before Christmas Day. There are going to be other sales.

Given the current state of the economy. Brick and mortar as well as online stores are going to be offering even more deals. Possible extra incentives for you to buy. Just don’t get caught up in the emotion of Black Friday. It is going to be a buyer market.
