Part 1

The list

Divide what you can spend by the list, then adjust. Writing it down now is what stops the Black Friday overspend.

Whatever they mentioned in passing this year. One line is enough; you'll refine it later.

Part 2

Popular toys and personalized gifts run out or slip past shipping cutoffs. Get those now, not in December.

TVs, headphones and small kitchen appliances are usually cheapest on Black Friday. Put a star next to them on the list.
