Even before the tryptophan is starting to wear off, people must exercise their American right... to shop... at a discount. And if companies are going to get us up off the couch after a day of overeating, parades, Football and The National Dog Show, those discounts had better be DEEP.
Sure, there are tons of no name flat screen TVs, clothes that you wouldn’t normal wear and cameras with barely a megapixel that you can get for a steal. But what about those items for us, the card collectors? Well you are in luck. Of all the Black Friday deals out there, the best ones are available to collectors thanks to the card companies and the stores the cards we want.
Mind you there are still some cards that great buys even without a discount like SAGE 5 Star Football that offers 40 autographs a box or Press Pass Legends that offers 6 hits per hobby box of the greatest drivers in the history of racing or any of our other highly rated cards like Panini Crown Royale Football, Topps Triple Threads Baseball or Rittenhouse Archives Warehouse 13 and Star Trek TNG cards.
But for those of you that want to save big, here are the best places to check for Black Friday Specials and Deals listed in alphabetical order.
