Most major retail stores have extended hours on New Year's Day, with many retailers opening as early as 5am and staying open as late as midnight or beyond. These extended hours give shoppers the opportunity to shop at a time that is most convenient for them, while taking advantage of the marked down prices. Although there are several "doorbuster" deals, which are additional percentages off already discounted prices for shoppers arriving prior to dawn hours, many stores offer special deals throughout the day.http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1353276/how_to_shop_new_years_day_sales_during.html?cat=46
In addition to the deals available in the store, there are also New Year's Day sales available online. Shopping online gives buyers the opportunity to take advantage of the same great deals that they would find at the store, but without the hassle of fighting through crowds, standing in long lines, and trying to find parking. So, whether shoppers face the crowds on New Year's Day or shop online, they can save a lot of money by taking advantage of New Year's Day sales.
New Year's Day Shopping Tips
- Make a list of the items you want to purchase and the stores that you want to shop at. You can find out which stores are having the best New Year's Day sales by checking advertisements you receive in the mail or newspaper and visiting your favorite store websites.
- Check store websites or call ahead to the stores you plan to visit to find out what their New Year's Day hours will be. Many stores open extra early on New Year's Day, and if you don't get their early, you may miss out on items you planned to purchase.
- Bring the ads with you for the specific items that you want to purchase. This way you can make sure that the advertised price is the same price being offered in the store.
- Put money away for New Year's Day. Too many people spend all their extra money by Christmas that there's nothing left over to take advantage of the tremendous sales that happen on New Year's Day. So remember to set aside some money so you can get great deals by shopping at New Year's Day sales events.
