You run the risk of broken bones and getting into fights over blenders this day. Why do it? As of this time (2:45PM EST), many of the "incredible" deals are no more, so save your war boots for another day.
The following is an example of a superior way to shop online and be privy to sales at a moment's notice.
EXAMPLE: 16 GB Nexus 7 (2013) by ASUS ($230)
This tablet is a hot item this year, and for good reason. Using this tablet as an example, here's something you can do to save yourself stress and get ahead of the competition.
Amazon.com: Put the tablet in your wish list. Save it and leave it there. Checking periodically, I've found the device change in price many times. Right now it is $199, which is a great saving for an already-budget tablet.
Newegg.com: Newegg is a behemoth among computer hardware enthusiasts. In addition to having repeatedly better deals on electronics over several other retailers, you many also customize your shopping experience with alerts: type in the item you want, set a price alert to be sent to your email, and save and wait.
dealnews.com: Make an account with this website and use it year-round. Like with Newegg, you may also utilize an alert system that will send you emails whenever a saved keyword comes up. No more than three hours ago I received this great advertisement for the Nexus 7. If you have Masterpass, you should take advantage of this offer.
reddit.com: Redditors are, for the most part--like the rest of society--kind and helpful people. After doing a quick search of the Nexus 7 and sorting posts by time, I discovered a thread made up of users posting new deals as they find them. This dedicated group of heroes wants everyone to get a Nexus 7 for a great price, and I thank them for their efforts.
All these websites may be linked to your smartphone's email. Imagine, you can go outside and rake the leaves, visit a darling relative, or just sit around and relax, rather than braving the crowds at retail stores or eying online deals all day. Be a savvy shopper.
