This guide will turn you into a Black Friday champion, with finding the best deals, along with tips to keep your eyes happy throughout the shopping marathon.
Master the plan: strategies for savings
Here, we have listed top shopping tips for you to follow and help you navigate through the sales and maximise your savings:
1. Make a wish list
Make a list of what you want to buy ahead of the big day. Make sure to prioritise your list, as popular items sell out fast. So, put your most wanted or popular items at the top to avoid impulsive purchases or any disappointment.
2. Do your research
Don't go in blind! Research deals beforehand. Check online ads and leaflets from your favourite shops. Many retailers even release Black Friday sneak peeks online. Bookmark the websites with the best deals, so you know exactly where to find them on the big day.
3. Sign up for newsletters
Get ahead of the game by subscribing to emails of your favourite brands. They often send out exclusive Black Friday deals and discount codes to their subscribers, so you'll be in the know before everyone else. Subscribe to our Feel Good Contacts newsletter to never miss out on any discounts from us.
4. Set a budget
It's easy to get swept up in the excitement of multiple sales and overspending. So, set a clear budget and stick to it! This will prevent buyer's remorse and ensure you don't break the bank. Only buy what you can afford within your set limit.
5. Become a social media savvy shopper
Social media is your friend on Black Friday. Follow your favourite retailers and brands on platforms like Instagram and Facebook. They'll announce exclusive deals and discounts, keeping you up to date with exclusive deals and discounts for more savings.
6. Look for cashback and rewards
Increase your savings further! Look for cashback options and shopping reward programmes. Many credit cards and wallets offer cashback on purchases. Use payment methods that give you the most rewards or cashback. Retailers with reward points can also help you with future purchases.
7. Conquer the deals online and in-store
Black Friday isn't just about physical stores. Many amazing deals are available online too! Consider shopping both ways to find the best offer. Online shopping lets you avoid crowds and shop from the comfort of your home.
8. Compare prices
Don't assume the first Black Friday deal you see is the best. Make sure to use price comparison websites and apps when shopping to ensure that you are getting the best possible price. Compare with multiple retailers before you checkout. At Feel Good Contacts, we offer a price match guarantee around the year to ensure you get your eye essentials at the best price possible.
9. Discount codes are your secret weapon
Look for additional discount codes or cashback offers to maximise your savings. Many retailers offer extra discounts when you enter a specific code at checkout. At Feel Good Contacts, we always have a special discount code waiting for you on both our website and app.

Bonus tip: Take care of your eyes!
While you're busy shopping, don't forget to take care of those peepers! Here are some eye-care tips for Black Friday:
- Take screen breaks: Staring at screens and bright light for long periods of time can strain your eyes. Try to practice the 20/20/20 rule - every 20 minutes, look 20 feet into the distance for at least 20 seconds and blink frequently.
- Adjust screen brightness: Reduce the brightness on your phone or computer screen to reduce eye strain.
- Use eye drops: If your eyes feel dry or irritated, use hydrating eye drops to lubricate them.
- Blink often: We tend to blink less when focusing on screens. Remember to make a conscious effort to blink regularly in order to keep your eyes moist.
- Wear sunglasses while stepping out to shop: Remember to put on your sunglasses if you plan to shop in-store offers. Opt for sunglasses that provide 100% UVA and UVB protection from harmful sun rays.
If you are looking for stylish sunnies that provide effective sun protection without digging a hole into your pocket, explore our Feel Good Collection sunglasses and make a pick.
