MAIN Holidays Veterans Day 2012 Veterans Day Sales

It's a chance to avoid the crush of Black Friday sales shopping - without the usual mad rush!

Even so, it will take the fervor of a patriot and the tactical planning of a 4-star general to succesfully navigate the first big sales day of the holiday season.

Here are some tips to help:

This year, Veterans Day falls on Sunday, November 11, 2012 so expect a long weekend of deals and bargains starting on Friday -- and lasting through Monday November 12th at outlet malls, department stores and local retailers nationwide.

If you havent' already, first check the local newspapers or hunt online for store circulars advertising when and where the best Veterans Day sales are taking place. Have your holiday or gift list ready and plan out the appropriate stores to hit along your shopping route.

As you might expect, on offer at many of these pre-Thanksgiving and Christmas sales include toys, kids clothing, and gifts sets of gloves, scarves, hats and other winter gear at Walmart, Sears, Macy's, Kohl's, K-Mart and Target.

Watch for electronics to go on sale with great buys on everything from laptops to flat screen TVs at mega-electronics stores such as Best Buy and PC Richard.

Finally, if you're an active duty military, veteran, or an immediate family member, look for some department stores and chain restaurants to express their gratitude by offering 10-20% discounts (or even free meals) on ANY purchase made during the Veterans Day holiday.
