FAQ

Shopping tips

Previous experience around Black Friday has taught me that a little bit of planning goes a long way. So here are some shopping tips that'll hopefully help land you a great CD bargain.

1. Keep a list handy: By keeping a list of the CDs you're looking to buy this Black Friday, you won't miss anything. I keep a list of stuff I'm hoping to see on my phone, so I can cross-ref that when the CD sales land. I also fine Amazon's list function pretty much essential - and I have several shortlists of products I want to buy during the sales.

2. Budget for a bargain: This year's Black Friday takes place very close to the last day of the month, so for a lot of people, that means it will fall around their pay day. But to take some of the stress out of the monthly budget, if you can put some money aside for the sales, it can certainly ease the financial burden of grabbing a gargantuan CD box set. I always try and put a some cash aside in the months leading up to the Black Friday weekend - I find it just makes things a little easier for me when deciding what I can afford.

3. Shop around: Before spending your money on a shiny new CD collection, make sure you compare prices between retailers. Prices can vary dramatically around Black Friday, so it's always good to take a broad view, rather than just trust one or two retailers. Also take a look and see if the retailer is offering any extras, as some of them will throw in free Apple Music for three months etc.
