Here’s a great roundup of social media coupons out there for all you smartphone-toting Black Friday shoppers out there!
Black Friday is upon us and that means that retailers are scrambling to offer the best door-busting (or mouse-busting) specials and promotions to entice eager holiday shoppers.
Thanks to the success of Cyber Monday, retailers and online shops have long embraced the web as a place to promote and showcase deals and specials. What’s unique this Black Friday, however, is the large number of specials and promotions offered by retailers to customers who use location-based apps and services.
Read the full article here: 10 Social media deals to check into on Black Friday.
Don’t forget: If you’re going out shopping on Friday, text us at 404-890-0AJC or tweet us @atlbargains (#blackfridayatl) to let us know where the deals are, where the deals aren’t and which lines to avoid.
Also, don’t forget to grab the Thursday newspaper this week for loads of shopping previews and coupons!

Hi, I would like to know when and where I can buy the thanksgiving day newspaper, i would guess this would be easy to find in the newspaper page? Since its got all the ads and etc, but all the stores are closed on thursday, so how do we get it?
This should be an easy tip to put on the blog and make some money by selling the paper!

Outside the best buy near where I live, there are already people waiting in line! Come on people–saving a couple of hundred bucks on a TV is not worth waiting 2 days and 2 nights in line for some mediocre TV they are trying get rid of.

Another interesting site that may help you identify what great offers and deals the Twitter crowds are finding for black friday is our http://blackfriday.tweetmeme.com channel. It takes all the links that people share on Twitter and ranks them so that you can find the most popular and relevant ones. It’s a real goldmine if you’re looking to find that bargain as it’s real time as well!

I’m finding lots of deal advertised in the Black Friday ads online like the bikes at Walmart and Leapfrog Leapster software at Target. Great way to avoid lines in some cases if it’s just a few specific things you need.
Happy Shopping.
