When shopping during Black Friday, it’s important to not fall into the trap of buying anything with a sale sign and taking on too much credit card debt. Plan your budget instead, and remember that something you see while out shopping might be on sale, you are still spending money on something you did not intend to buy. Be sure to see if your credit card offers price protection, keep your credit card as secure, and if you are shopping online, beware of scams and hackers. Don’t forget to keep your receipts, just in case you need to make a return.
