Dealio.com Urges Shoppers to Stay Home this Black Friday

Top retailers like Target, Toys R Us, and Best Buy are offering competitive online deals in addition to in-store sales allowing shoppers to take advantage in Black Friday deals from the comforts of home.

SAN MATEO, CA, November 24, 2009 — Dealio.com, the leading comparison shopping, coupons and deals website is urging shoppers to stay in this Black Friday and take advantage of the discounts from the comforts of home. By comparing leaked in-store Black Friday ads to top online Black Friday sales, Dealio has found a way for shoppers to save big without the hassle of waking up early, waiting in line and risking injury in possible stampedes.

Since the 1960's Black Friday has indicated the start of the holiday shopping season. The frenzy caused by a limited supply of products offered at huge discounts has waned over the years, especially with the emergence of Cyber Monday, a holiday created by the National Retail Federation enabling online-only retailers to compete. Traditional brick & mortar retailers like Kmart, Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and Toys R Us will still continue with in-store deals, but they are also slashing online prices and offering extra incentives such as free shipping, gifts with purchase and coupon codes too.

"Retailers are trying new strategies to entice shoppers to buy earlier. From 'Better than Black Friday Sales' to Cyber Monday through to after Christmas sales, the offers will be relentless this year. Shoppers should be wise with not only their dollars, but also their time" said Michael Levit, EVP of Marketing for Dealio "More traditional brick and mortar retailers are offering great deals online due to their increased online competition. Shoppers should use that to their advantage. Why wait in the cold when you can buy the same product online with extra incentives free shipping or gift with purchase and use Dealio.com to ensure you are in fact getting a great deal?"
