• 1:06
  Speaker 1: and I do really enjoy.

  Speaker 1: the moment is, you know how intense Black Friday has
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: gotten and how confusing it has gotten, which is why
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: we've decided to do our Broach Chicks Guide to Black
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Friday as an entire episode, because this shit's gotten confusing.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Black Friday used to be a twenty four hour period
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and now it's.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: A thirty day sale event.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and we have a lot of questions from the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: chicks to answer, like what.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Do I buy? When do I buy it? Do I
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: buy now or do.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I wait for Black Friday? What are the best sales?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: And how am I supposed to organize my budget?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: So we have gone into the wiz.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: We've gone into the four years of Black Friday data
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: that we've collected from doing cheat sheets and sales coverage,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and we've got all the information for you, plus some
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: free hacks to I don't get a little inside look
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: into the brand side of whether or not something's actually
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: a good deal or whether that's seventy percent off is
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: a scam. But before we get into that, what's your obsession?
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Obsession? These are my obsessions.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: My obsession of the week is something that you were
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: gonna laugh at me for, Oh my god, but.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: No, that's an ongoing lifelong obsession. Hand crame love it.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: My obsession of the week is the Hilary Duff renaissance,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: and I'm so happy. Like it's twenty twenty five. This
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: is what we deserve.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: She looks fucking great.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: She looks amazing. She always has, she always has. She
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: ages like a fine wine. She only becomes more beautiful
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: with every day.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Have you listened to the song? It came out while
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: we were in the recording. I believe it. She listened
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: to it right now. Should do a little snake paperay,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: hold on, I put it on. So is there a
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: music video? Surely? Okay, let's watch the music video in
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: real time.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Hillary Duff has released her first single in years. It's
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: called Mature, and we're gonna watch the music video for
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: the first time.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Why am I crying? Yes?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: This is it?
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I love it. Fuck, she looks amazing. This is shady too.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Is she divorced? It's giving.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I'm divorced yet like the best way. Okay, I'm not
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: gonna lie. She didn't have me at the first but that.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Chorus hit really good. Okay, amazing, and she looks so
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: beautiful the outfits. Yeah, we'll listen to the full thing
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: obviously after this. That is amazing.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Okay, so she is divorced, but she has like a
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: new partner, and by that I mean they've been married
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: since twenty nineteen, but she had a previous marriage from
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: twenty ten to twenty sixteen.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: So potentially I wonder if he's dating someone younger. Look
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: it up right now, definitely need to what's the tea?
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I love her like people need to stop being so
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: invested in celebrities like personal life.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: And then oh, okay, it's a kind of I wondered this.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: It's a conversation that she's having with her younger self,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: So the two of us are reflecting on a past
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: experience and sending love to each other. It's a chuckle,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: a wink, a sense of being grateful that we are
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: sure footed in where we landed. Fuck, she looks amazing.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: All of the photos to the music video that are
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: coming out. Oh I love it. But yeah, so we've
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: got our first single from Hillary Duff. She was on
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: Therapusts this week Yeah Love with Jake Shange, which was amazing,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: and then she also was the Sally for a role
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Model like a few weeks ago, and I just love
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: it because in all of her interviews and everything, like,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: she's so down to earth and we've been seeing the
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: renaissance of like a few iconic two thousand's queens like
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: Lindsay Lewen, Demi Levado and.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I'm here for it. Yeah, so fun. What's your obsession? Okay,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: my obsession of the week is so boring.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: I don't say that, but I couldn't be more obsessed Cheerios.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know how I got twenty nine years old
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: without ever eating cheerios. Yes, I'm talking about the cereal.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I fucking love cheerios. I ate them for breakfast, I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: eat them for an afternoon stack, and if I'm lucky
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: enough to have any milk.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Left, I eat them for dessert. They are so young.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's completely changed my life. And come
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: back in about two months when I've eaten them so
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: much that I wake up one day and I look
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: at them and I go, I.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Could never eat a cheerio every yin. Yeah, hyperfixation meals
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: are tough like that.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: That's my hyperfixation meal at the moment. I can't stop
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: eating cherios. And then my second obsession of the week,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: which will tie us into obviously this episode, is the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: brand spanking new two broad Chicks Black Friday Sales cheat
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: sheet Chef's kiss to us. We have launched the Black
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Friday cheat Sheet, the earliest that we ever have, and
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: we've built an entire website dedicated to this cheat sheet
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: in twenty four hour isn't mind You and literally learned
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: to code back in my Tumblr eerr yep. And it's
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: truly the best thing to find all of the Black
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Friday sales in one place with the original creators of it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: We've literally been creating.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: It for four years. Just a little note anyone the OG.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah or the OG.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: We've been creating our Black Friday cheat sheet for over
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: four years with all of the best fashioned beauty lifestyle.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Sales all in one place so that you can shop, compare,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: and save.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: We have exclusive deals from brands so you can save
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: even more. We also included a column that's called the
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Cherry on top, so it shows you if you can
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: get a free gift with purchase if they price match
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: what their free shipping policy is. And it just is
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: honestly going to make Black Friday sales so much easier,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: especially when there's already so much marketing noise that's going
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: for a month. So We update it daily with exclusive sales,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: new deals that have dropped, and also all of the
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: affiliate revenue goes to charity.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: So if you.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Are not onto it, get onto it.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: It's free. Yeah, that's our first tip.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and our obsession and hopefully all of your
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: chicks obsession as well.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: So we've had heaps of questions on this because obviously
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: we have never dropped the Black Friday cheat cheat this
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: early before, but due to the sale going for a
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: month now, we obviously wanted to drop it to kind
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: of help people because everyone's getting overwhelmed and rightly so,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: so we wanted to explain why is Black Friday going
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: for a month?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Well, two reasons.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: One, brands are trying to get ahead of the noise,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: which they don't have the consumer in mind for this,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: which is really frustrating. Like brands don't want to have
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to compete within the twenty four hours of the week
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: of Black Friday with all the marketing. It means they
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: have to spend more on ads and they have to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: put more effort into their marketing. So by doing it early,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: there's less competition in the noise. There is less competition
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: in sales because if they're dropping a twenty percent site
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: wide now versus when all the other brands are doing
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: forty percent on Black Friday. You're gonna spend your budget
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: on that shit sale first versus waiting, because it's the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: scarcity tactic, right, like scarcity tactic. Sorry I'm British now, yes,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: but it's getting you to spend your budget. First, you
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: get paid once a month. Maybe you get paid for
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: not only maybe you get paid weekly. Most people get
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: paid once a month. So you're gonna get paid and
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: then you're spending all your money in the first week,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: and by Black Friday you're like, well the goal, sir,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: you know it is where you go. So that's the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: first reason why it's starting so much now. The second
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: reason is because there's actually a second sale event called
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Clickfrenzy and Singles Day, which is technically on the eleventh
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: of November. Clickfrendsly used to be in October. It's now
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: moved to mid November. I ask why move it back?
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: It happened last year and we were like, please don't
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: let it happen again.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: And they did it anyway.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: And so what brands do is they have like a
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: warm up sale, which is basically for click frenzy, and
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: they kind of loop these two things in together. So
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: that's why sales are just dropping left, right and center,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and you don't know is this your official Black Friday
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: sale now or are you going to do another one later?
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Like what's going on? And it's frustrating.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: It's so frustrating for the consumer because they're like, I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: don't know whether I shop now or whether I shop later.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really hard. Sometimes I wonder, I'm like, do
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: the brands know either? Sometimes I wonder if they're just
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: testing the waters. These are very normal questions and questions
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: that have been flooding out in box in the last
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: couple of weeks ever since they've started to drop.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So I actually did a little bit of data
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: analysis and I went back through our cheat sheets over
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the last four years to look at when the strongest
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: deals drop, and the average of those was that the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: best deals drop the week commencing Black Friday. So Black
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Friday this year is on the twenty eighth, so we're
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: gonna start seeing official and strong Black Friday sales. I
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: would say from the twenty first of October to the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: twenty fourth of October, we were actually saying that last
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: year was kind of crazy because by the time that
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Black Friday actually came around, everyone was done. Yeah, everyone
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: was like, I'm shopped out totally.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: The shoppies are dead.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And there weren't that many exciting Black Friday launches
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: on the day, Like a lot of the sales we
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: were being like, oh, like they've done twenty percent of sitewid, Like,
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: surely they're going to check on an extra ten percent,
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: you know something, but no.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's definitely an interesting tactic. I agree.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I think for me, it's about knowing what you want
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: to buy and how much of a discount you want
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: it for. If something selling out is going to ruin
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: your day, buy it at a discount that you were
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: happy with. So that's also how we're going to get
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: into what do I buy and building your wish list
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: with Black Friday.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: I think the thing is that it is so overwhelming
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: because you see sales across all different categories and it
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: is like the biggest sale event of the entire year,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: and it can be really easy to get swept up
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: by the marketing tactics and the excitement and the discounts
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: and just go crazy. And that's why It is so
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: important to have a wish list and know exactly what
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: you want to buy before you go into the sale event.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: One hundred percent.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I read a stat the other day and it said
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: forty two percent of shoppers regret a Black Friday purchase,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and that's why it's so important to have.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: A wish list. Yeah, definitely.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: I think a big part of that is setting yourself
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: a budget and knowing exactly how much you want to
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: spend and are willing to spend, because that way, as well,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: you give yourself that boundary and you're not going to
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: have that same level of buyers remorse if you set
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: yourself a budget. I think I saw a TikTok from
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: a creator and I'll link it below, and it was
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: mind blowing because I think this is the best way
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: to avoid buyers remorse of whether or not you got
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: the best deal right. And basically, when you create a
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: wish list, Let's say you want a dice in air
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: rap right for example, and you go in and you
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: write your wish list and you write your budget and
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: you say, Okay, I would be extremely happy with a
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: thirty percent off the diceon air rap. When I see that,
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: I'm going to buy it because you work out how
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: much you're going to save, You work out your budget,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: you have like RP, then you have savings what the
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: new price would be, and then that ties into your budget.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Right. So that way, if you then see the dison
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Air rap for thirty percent off, you can buy that
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: knowing that that was what you budgeted for. That was
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: a deal that you were happy with, so you get it.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: It doesn't sell out and you don't have that disappointment.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: And then two, even if it does potentially go on
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: sales somewhere for forty percent off, you're not going to
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: lose sleep over that potential ten dollars that you didn't save,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you know. I think that's the important thing to remember
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: that the difference between thirty percent to forty percent sometimes
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: is the matter of a few dollars that if you
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: want something and it's like make or break, do or die, like,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: you'll be upset you didn't get that.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a thing.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: So actually, when you write your wish list, having your
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: goal savings for that item is absolutely the.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Way to go about it. Yeah, I think that's a
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: really good strategy.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and identifying the things that you need beforehand. And
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: creating a wish list based on that is also a
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: key part. So whether you are doing your Christmas shopping,
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: or if you take stock of your wardrobe and you
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: identify gaps that you genuinely need or like it's a
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: good time to you know, buy homewares, or if you
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: need an upgrade on a tech item, it takes you
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: out of the impulse by mentality. Yeah exactly, and you
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: know that you're not going to a week after Black
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Friday end up with a bunch of packages and be
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: like what is this?
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Be like whose horse is that? Yeah? Seriously?
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: And I think it also helps you avoid the sale
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: section scroll.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: The sale section scroll.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Is literally the biggest money bleed of your life because
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you're scrolling through twenty pages of shit no one wanted,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: but because it's on sale, you now want it. You
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: didn't want it before you got to page five, Yeah,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: but now you do because you saw it on sale,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: just because it's on sale, because it's on sale and
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: we've been there.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, girl many Leslie. I was on page six. Yeah.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: We still have our flare ups, well, have a flare
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: up one.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Hundred percent, but I'm absolutely getting better with it because
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I realized. Like when I'm on like four pages in,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I'm like, what am I doing here? I'm just looking
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: for dopamine? Yeah, yeah, totally something.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, which, come on, let's be real to be part
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: of every shopping experie.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: I feel like you need to have a budget of Okay, fine,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: you can have it. Maybe it's like fifty bucks. Maybe
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: you give yourself fifty dollars.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Of fun money. Fun money didn't exist, it wasn't on
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: my wish list.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: But I wanted a buffer, a fun money buffer of fluffer,
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: maybe a Black Friday fluffer only get me ready get
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: Black Friday. Like we were saying, so many different categories
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: go on sale over Black Friday. So if you were like, okay,
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: but I don't even know where to start, where do
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: I create our wish list? We saw some interesting research
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: that came out about the most popular categories to shop
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: over Black Friday. So what to buy? Yeah, so what
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: to buy over Black Friday? And some of the most
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: popular purchases over Black Friday. Apparel and accessories twenty one
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: point five percent of people shop department stores fifteen percent.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I would agree. I would agree as well a department
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: stores price match.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and electronics ten point four percent. And finally, Christmas gifts.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Sixty seven percent of Australians plan to finish most of
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: their twenty two twenty five Christmas shopping before December. So
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Black Friday is the last time that you can do
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: your Christmas shopping on sale.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so if you're wondering what to buy for Black Friday,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: buy Christmas presents. I also saw that they shared the
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: most popular time that people shop Black Friday, and that's
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: one pm on actual Black Friday. So last year that
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: was the twenty ninth of November. So again it kind
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: of supports what we were saying before that, like try
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: not to pull the trigger too early on your shopping and.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Do sit on a little bit. In the Black Friday.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Cheat sheet, we've done our best to share the dates
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: that brands are going live with their sales.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: When brands have led us.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: We've strongly requested they let us share the dates, but
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: some friends just don't want us to. So I'm like, okay, fine,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: whatever you want.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Cis you want the baby girl.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: I also do have another hack on how you can
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: see whether or not you're getting the best deal on
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: a product, and it is in Google Shopping. You can
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: see the price of a product for the last three months.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: So a big thing that we see from brands is
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: that they increase the price of an item a month
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: before Black Friday, only to discount it, which is really
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: just its regular price. So you're not actually getting a
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: sale because they've increased the price a month beforehand. Very
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: very sneaky, and so a way that you can see
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: if a brand has done this, and also to see
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: if you can get a cheaper price at another time
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: of the year is in Google Shopping.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: You can go and search the item.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Let's say we're going to search New Balance nineteen sixties, right,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and when you click on that, there's a little bar
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: that says typically and a price range. You click the
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: little arrow on the side and it'll drop down into
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: a graph that shows you the last three months of
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: pricing and how affordable it's been, So when it's been
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: on sale, what's the lowest price? And you can also
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: compare it to other retailers and stockers, so I can
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: see that you know, on Aesos they were this price,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: but three months ago they were cheaper, but if on
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Black Friday they're going to be even cheaper than that.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I know I'm getting a good deal, but maybe I
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: also see that Platypus they actually had a cheaper price,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: so I'm going to go shop there and.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: You can actually see it all in one place.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: But there is a max of how many brands they
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: put in that, So that's when I would probably also
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: use our cheat sheet to compare what.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Sales are happening. I was like Google brav good job, Brava.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: And also in that same section when you scroll down,
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: you can see a lot of customer reviews.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, which it's in the same section.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a tutorial for that on TikTok and Instagram.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: It'll probably be live by the time this goes out,
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: so just.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Head to the show notes if you want like a
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: visual of that. But yeah, that was my one of
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: my favorite discoveries that I made. While I've been like,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: how can.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I help, how can I help? The check help? The
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Chicks series so annoying.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: When I discovered that, I was like going on about
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: it for like thirty minutes to my boyfriend being like,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: fucking good at my job. I was like fucking good.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I was like, look what I just found. He's like, yeah,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you showed me already. I'm like, look again, look at
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: this other products that I did it with too. I
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: did it for a kindle. Look freaking I did it
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: for a kindle. Kindle I did it for don't ever. Yeah,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: you can do it for so many products. Some products,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: if they're a little bit more niche, it's hard to find,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: but it still normally has that typical range.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: But yeah, definitely.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: A good place to start, especially for those hot ticket items.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah baby. And speaking of hot ticket items, oh,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: I saw.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: That Google just released their Google Holiday one hundred report.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: So that's this year's one hundred most popular trending products
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: based on Google trend fucked.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: We'll link the full guide in the show notes, but
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: I wanted to run through some of the most popular
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: products in twenty twenty five according to Google Trends, so
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: that you can build out your wish lists. But also
• 20:01

• 20:14
  Speaker 3: strap across the fort Oh yeah, oh yes, the Crocs

• 20:23
  Speaker 3: all time high this year. Pinstripe button ups, relaxed straight

  Speaker 3: leg jeans, and the Coach No Leader nineteen handbag beauty,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: the Glossy Air You perfume, the Oliplex Number seven bonding oil,
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: the Road Glazing milk, and also red light therapy masks.

  Speaker 2: Yep, that checks out.

• 20:58
  Speaker 3: and ice cream maker. Yeah, our Place cook wear sets
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: and the Cozy Earth bubble blanket.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know what that is, but it looks fucking incredible. Really,
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: it looks really good. Should we buy one? I reckon?
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: I'm literally the most easy to influence human in the
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: entire world. But we're terribly we should not be doing
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: this job. I know we were, but I'm like, no,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: I'm influenced.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: But yeah.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: So, given that some of these are the top trending
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: items according to Google, you can expect them to get
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: snapped up first. If they do go on sale on
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Black Friday, so definitely have those in your wish lists.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: One thousand percent. Should we run through what's on our
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: wish list? Yeah?
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, what do you think is some of the best
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Black Friday sales happening?
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, so in my personal opinion, and some of the
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: sales I'm the most excited for. The first one is
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Sendre They're doing up to fifty percent off site wide,
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: but then we also have an extra five percent off
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: with our code, which you can find in the cheat sheet.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: But all of their pieces are incredible, and I really
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: want one of their watches, so I think I'll be
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: snapping one of those up stacks. They're doing forty to
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: sixty percent off site wide, and you can also get
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: an extra ten percent off with our code.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: And guys don't sleep on the stacks. Sleepwear pun intended. Yeah,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: their pajamas are literally the skim's dupe. They are so comfy,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: they are so soft. My boyfriend steals them literally all
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: the fucking time. I'm like, oh, give them back, I
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: will literally strip you naked in the streets.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Give me more jummies.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: They are so amazing, They're so breathable, they're so light,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: feels like a little hug they're active or is amazing.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: But the sleep the sleepwear.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, also love their sweats and hoodies out of ten Yeah, okays,
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: I was going to say, and finally, Alias may So
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: they rarely do sightwide sales. Last year, they did thirty
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: percent off site wide for Black Friday. And I have
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: a few pieces that I've had in my cart six months.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've been waiting for Black Friday, so this
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: is my chance.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Similarly, Dish Dish very rarely have like almost everything off sales,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: and they did twenty five percent off last year, so
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: I think it's probably likely we'll see something like that
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: again this year. And they also have currently a twenty
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: percent off extra on sale items. So I have already
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: bought a pair of jeans because I was like, I'm
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: actually happy with that discount. If it was more discounted
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna get upset about five dollars, probably not. Yeah,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: So like that's my question, I asked myself. So that's
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: definitely one that I'm looking for. And I do think
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: they've increased the quality recently as well. Like I would
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: say two years ago, you know, you would kind of
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: look at the fabric composition go sometimes doing to pay
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: that that much for that, but I've been looking at
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the fabric composition recently of the fiber composition, and I've
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: been quite happy with some of my purchases. And then
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: the other one is Realization par They will probably be
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: doing twenty five percent off. And there's this one dress
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: that I've been wanting for at least six months. I
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: would even go so far to say maybe like nine months,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: and I've been wanting this dress so much, and Realization
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Parer is so expensive, but I know that I've wanted
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: that dress for so long, so I'm like, I'm getting it, yeah, yeah,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: and like I'm happy to pay for it full price,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: which hurts my feelings, but I know that that sale
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: is coming. I'm not going to regret a big purchase
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: like that. And then my third one, which they're kind
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: of on my naughty list because the sale is the
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: same every single year, but again it's a good opportunity
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: to like get lots of restocks of my beauty cupboard
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: is the Sephora sales, so they have twenty percent off
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: minimums spend one hundred and forty dollars. They're on my
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: naughty list because that minimum spend has gone up from one.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Hundred and three twenty yeah, one twenty two.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: One hundred and forty, which I'm like, don't do that,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: And I do think one hundred and forty is quite
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: a significant minimum spend. But like I said, that's when
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I'm going to stock up on the items that like
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: I want or I also we'll probably get a bunch of.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Christmas presents in that.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: And then actually I'm breaking the rules and we're gonna
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: have another one the Iconic.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: The Iconic have some.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Of the best sales ever. They price match on top
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: of that, so like check that out. And then also
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: they always have spend and saves. They can stack like
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: deals on top of each other and you can get
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: incredible savings on the Iconic. It definitely slept on.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: It's a great one stop shop when you're doing your
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Christmas shop.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: My god, you can literally buy everyone's presence from the
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: Iconic Easy Easy.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: I think that's a wrap.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Maybe we need to do an entire second episode on
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: our wish lists and what we're actually gonna buy and
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: product recommendations. I think that'll be fun. Let us know
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: if you want that for next week's episode. But Love
• 25:47
