Smartphone Apps Aid Black Friday Madness

Post contributed by Asia Farmer -

Every year Black Friday takes the Thanksgiving holidays by storm, tornado, and even typhoon. What better way to increase that experience than having your handy dandy smartphone. Smartphones. Many Black Friday applications such as Black Friday by Fat Wallet, Inc., TGI Black Friday, Black Friday by BradsDeals and many others have provided shoppers with many ways to fulfill shopping. Shoppers are able to get and stay in the loop on great deals and coupons that will save them money. These applications break down deals by store and company, show comparisons in prices, filters items by brand, rebate, doorbuster, online availability and free shipping. Websites like www.freepricealert.com are constantly updated 24 hours to guide shoppers in the right direction on deals.
  These websites and applications via smartphones have made Black Friday an easier challenge for consumers. In the past consumers could only rely on television commercials and advertisements in the stores and newspapers to know what deals were available. Now consumers are able to know in advance what is out there and what to expect before leaving there homes. This even provides consumers with some sort of a game plan prior to Black Friday to prepare for a day of shopping in madness. Technology yet again serves a great purpose in making things much easier.
