A Personal finance blog to get rich
I use coupons and vouchers, but not insanely. Even though I believe that using coupons won’t make us rich, I use Priceline for our hotel and airfare often. I do try to look for coupons for every big ticket purchase.
Once we were obsessive, especially right after coming to this country, actually online coupons increased our spending. We realized coupons are to be used intelligently.
Not long ago I was bragging about the newest online coupon app, Coupon Sherpa. I never clip coupons but lately I started using coupon Sherpa a lot. But there has been problem since then.
I think my problem at the grocery store is that I walk down every aisle and look at all the deals. I don’t get them all, but I do get some things that are not on my list.
Black Friday, or the day after Thanksgiving, is the biggest shopping day of the year. Last year, consumers spend over $11.4 billion dollars on this day alone.
It is estimated that 152 million shoppers went to retail stores on Black Friday (remember, there are only 311 million people in the United States, so that is almost 50% of all people living in the US). So, what is it about this day that draws so many people out to shop? Is it the deals?
