THAT OL’ ‘BLACK’ MAGIC
Friday deals guide
Pack those Thanksgiving leftovers to go — you’re already late for Black Friday shopping!
New York City stores are throwing their doors open early for America’s biggest shopping holiday, and the best bargains won’t wait around for seconds.
Many of the emporiums actually began their sales on Thursday, with bargain-hungry shoppers skipping the stuffing and braving frigid temperatures to get the jump on the hottest deals.
But if you’re looking to do Black Friday on the actual Friday, make sure you’re in line by these times:
Macy’s opens its stores at 6 a.m. with thousands of doorbuster specials, including an Anne Klein double-breasted peacoat discounted from $225 to $89.99 and the perennial favorite KitchenAid stand mixer for $189.99 — down from $324.99.
Saks Fifth Avenue’s flagship store opens at 8 a.m. with deals on designer clothing, handbags and shoes. The store is also offering a $75 gift card with a purchase of $150.
Bloomingdale’s in Midtown throws its doors open at 7 a.m. with savings that grow with the amount of money you’re willing to spend. A purchase of $100 nets a 15 percent discount, while splashing $400 or more will earn you 25 percent off.
Barneys’ Manhattan stores, at 660 Madison Ave. and 101 Seventh Ave., both open at 10 a.m. — and stay open until 9 p.m. — with up to 40 percent off designer duds.
GameStop stores open at 7 a.m. with discounted toys, consoles and games, including “Madden NFL 19” and “NBA 2K19” for $27 each — plus free $50 gift cards when you buy a new Nintendo Switch, Xbox One or PS4 console.
Best Buy kicks things off at 8 a.m. with gadget deals galore, including iPads for $249.99, $20 off Amazon Echo Dots, and 70-inch LG smart TVs down from $999.99 to $699.99.
Upper West Side resident Maria Acosta, 57, already sampled those savings when she got in line at 5 a.m. Thursday outside the Best Buy on 62nd Street and Broadway to make sure she was first in the door when it opened — 12 hours later.
“I was shivering, freezing, but I did it — because it was a good deal!” Acosta told The Post.
She says it was all worth it for the 43inch Toshiba TV she scored for $129, down from $329, which sold out at the store almost immediately.
Acosta said she’d finally eat a Thanksgiving meal when she got home — but not before stopping off at Victoria’s Secret for some cheap panties.
“We take shopping very seriously,” she said.
In Manhattan, student Elizabeth Harris came all the way from Alabama to experience the shopping frenzy, hitting stores at 10 a.m. and eating her Thanksgiving lunch at a Dave & Buster’s so she could scour the city for deals.
“The cold is part of the experience,” Harris said as she waited on Thursday for the Herald Square Macy’s to open at 5 p.m.
“I’m going to spend more than $2,000 on Macy’s . . . You gotta have a lot of money for Black Friday.”
