In addition to blogging here for Looking Fly on a Dime, I'm a contributing writer for the fashion site, StyleBlazer. Of course I had to share a piece I wrote for them on Black Friday. Black Friday is almost here. You’ve been gearing up for this all year and reading up on the stores you want to attack {check out BlackFriday.com for the major retailers' sales}. That’s great but now you need a survival guide for the big day. Having a game plan can mean the difference between snagging a must have item and walking away empty-handed.Here are some last-minute tips to make your Black Friday shopping a success.Shop Solo: Lets admit it, sometimes us ladies like to shop in groups. Well, not today. Split off from your chicas so you can divide and conquer. When you go to one store and she goes to another, it’s like you’re in two places at once. If you strike out at your store maybe she’ll find something at hers. And vice versa. Just communicate with each other ahead of time and while you’re shopping so you can tell the other what you’re in the market for.
