Here’s what to buy on Black Friday and what to leave on the shelf

By nearly all accounts, this Black Friday could be bigger than ever.

Nearly 2 million more people are expected to shop from Thanksgiving Day through Cyber Monday (Nov. 29) this year compared to last year, according to the National Retail Federation.

“We’re expecting another record-breaking holiday season, and Thanksgiving weekend will play a major role,” said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay, in a statement. 

But just because it could be a record-breaking Black Friday, it doesn’t mean the deals will be bigger.

In fact, sales on some items won’t be as good as they’ve been in previous years.
