Black Friday Planner

A4, fits US Letter · 10 pages · color and black & white · printable PDF

Percent off tells you very little. This planner helps you work out what Black Friday and Cyber Monday really cost you – and what you honestly saved: only on things that were on your wish list beforehand, and measured against the best price you found elsewhere. Plus a limit, price tracking, a buy check, returns and an honest wrap-up.

What's inside

WHAT'S INSIDE (10 pages: cover, instructions and 8 worksheets)

BEFORE

  • My Sale Budget – limit, maximum per purchase, progress bar and rules like "no buy now, pay later"
  • Wish List Before the Sale – on the list since when, priority, regular and target price, store
  • Watching Prices – price history, price alert, lowest price per store, list-price trap spotted, code and expiry

ON SALE DAYS

  • Quick Check Before Checkout – 6 questions, cost per use, then: buy, wait or skip
  • Price Comparison & Purchases – the store's comparison price, price paid and best price elsewhere at total cost (taxes, shipping, fees), paid with / due date
  • My Real Savings – advertised discounts vs. actual price differences, with a worked example and a counted saving that only counts kept wish-list items

AFTERWARDS

  • Deliveries & Returns – return window, return started, ship back by, return shipping cost, refund amount
  • My Sale Wrap-Up – spent, return shipping, refunds, net spending, four-week check: what is still sitting there unopened?

TIPS WHERE YOU NEED THEM

Why a crossed-out "was" price or a list price is no proof of a bargain, what to check about return windows (and when they start) and return shipping, and how to compare total costs fairly. General information, not legal advice – return rules differ by store and country.

PRINT AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE

Print the worksheets as often as you need them – for example more buy checks or price-watching pages.
