Personally, I never buy big-ticket items until Black Friday sales roll around. Not even on Prime Day. That’s because, during this festive time of year, I have access to a wider range of brands — not just what’s available on Amazon. Prices tend to be even lower during this time, thanks to competitive price matching, with retailers praying for your business.

I’ve been researching these brands for the past month instead of drinking with my friends because that’s why they pay me the….well, pay me.
When it comes to travel, think “quiet luxury,” a trend that’ll never go out of style — just the name.
I plan everything from my travel outfit in a garment bag to my AWAY roller bag, so my accessories are always within easy reach. That often means wearing my favorite NEX belt bag or slipping a tote over the handles of my AWAY bag, making frantic TSA searches for my Passport and ID a lot easier.
Not only does it make traveling easier than ordering Dominos, but you look put together, and this time of year, you never know which ex-boyfriend or boss enemies you’ll run into at the airport.
Pro tip: Forget about checking bags; you can fit everything you need on a trip inside a carry-on. And this is coming from a high-maintenance woman who doesn’t leave town without her curling set and fifty shades of lipstick. Follow the rule: Don’t bring anything you can’t carry (with ease).
Below are a few options to help you balance your minimalist style with your maximalist items moving forward. Are you ready to look presentable and save cash for drinks at the airport bar? Then let’s get packing.

Your Black Friday FAQs, answered by shopping experts
When is Thanksgiving 2024?
Thanksgiving is late this year, falling on Thursday, November 28, 2024.
When is Black Friday 2024?
This year, Black Friday and its much-anticipated sales will occur on Friday, November 29, 2024.
Are early Black Friday deals worth shopping for?
We recommend shopping early for items that are likely to sell out, such as perennial gift favorites like Xbox, Ugg boots, PS5, Apple AirPods, the editor-approved Dyson AirWrap and more.
Can I shop Black Friday sales online?
Yes! Most stores and big box retailers continue to hold traditional in-store Black Friday sales but also match discounts for online shoppers. According to the National Retail Federation, Black Friday has topped Cyber Monday as the busiest day of the calendar year for online shopping since 2019.
Why is it called “Black Friday”?
The earliest usage of “Black Friday” as we know it dates back to the 1950s or ’60s, with “black” nodding to dreaded traffic jams caused by shoppers crowding downtown retail stores, as well as understaffed sales associates. Retailers attempted to rename the day “Big Friday” to signify a day of family fun and shopping. Although the rebrand didn’t stick, the positive connotation did. Retail businesses enjoy increased sales, and consumers enjoy corresponding holiday shopping discounts.
Despite being a great day for retailers, Black Friday still draws on the dark side of American consumerism, as many will remember violent crowds competing for limited merchandise. However, with the advent of internet shopping, retailers and e-tailers have continued to see record-breaking sales in recent years, without the morbid mob mentality kicking off the holiday season.
When is Cyber Monday 2024?
This year, the online shopping holiday Cyber Monday will take place on Monday, December 2, 2024.
Which is better, Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
The short answer is, it depends. Some retailers approach Black Friday and Cyber Monday differently, discounting various brands and products throughout the days after Thanksgiving, sometimes at different price points.
Traditionally, Cyber Monday offers retailers an opportunity to drop deeper discounts on already on-sale products. However, consumers should take caution: waiting for Cyber Monday is a risk that products, or certain sizes or models, may sell out.
Conversely, some stores don’t differentiate between their Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.
When is Travel Tuesday 2024?
Jet-setters rejoice: Travel Tuesday, with its great deals on flights, hotels, cruises, all-inclusives, and more, will take place on Tuesday, December 3, 2024.
