Best Black Friday Sales: Making the most of your time online

best black friday salesOur regular readers know we don't usually send around more than one email or so a week.  This week, however, is one of the few exceptions because of the holidays and the now famous Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.  We want to help you get the most out of this exciting time of year.

As a lead up to the sales, yesterday we announced a new Huge Janome Sewing Machine Giveaway with a RRP of $1,499.  If you haven't yet entered, you definitely should.  Since we launched last night, many readers have asked the best way to enter the contest to have the highest opportunity to win this major prize.  Easily the best way to do this is to use the “Share With Friends” entry option.  When you do this, not only do you register an entry for yourself at the time, but you also get a bonus entry if any of your friends enter the contest.  Your chances are supercharged!  All you need to do is share on Facebook, Google+, Pinterest or Twitter from the contest entry form.  Just click the image below to enter.

Best Black Friday Sales

Your inbox is probably overflowing now with various sales and promotions.  Many of our readers have asked if we could put together a shortlist of some of the best Black Friday Sales out there to make everyone's life a little simpler.  So here goes:

Craftsy

The Craftsy Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales are some of the best sales they do all year.  (In years past they have offered some really fantastic packages like unlimited classes for a whole month for only $9.00, but it appears they don't do this any more.)

Still the sales on offer today are significant and Craftsy are claiming to be offering their lowest prices on classes EVER!   So it is definitely worth checking out their site today and over the next few days if you've been waiting to buy that special course.  Please click the images below to enjoy these huge savings.

I have an older Kenmore machine which does very well for me, but moving up in the world of sewing with a Janome would be the ultimate Christmas gift. Thanks for the opportunity to possible win this beautiful machine.

Here’s an interesting bit of trivia. In Australia, Black Friday is any Friday the 13th. So in the “down under” land, we think our calendar must be different to everyone else. hee hee

I could use a new sewing machine as I am becoming a first time grandma in the middle of next year and have plenty of projects planned. My standby is a vintage mechanical workhorse, which I love, but am open to trying new things!

Why not? Why shouldn’t it be me? Even though my old Kenmore boat anchor is like an extension of me, I would love to have a machine with more features. BTW, what a great idea to have all the Black Friday promos in one post!!
