BLACK FRIDAY & CYBER MONDAY TRACKER

Black Friday & Cyber Monday Tracker: Plan Your Deals, Set Your Limit, Stay on Budget

Sales are exciting, and they're also where budgets quietly break. This free printable tracker helps you decide what you're buying, where you're buying it, and what you'll spend before the sales begin, so you shop with a plan and not on impulse.

Black Friday page (in-store deals): Plan your stops. For up to three stores, write the store name and its hours. Then list up to seven items per store, with the price, the discount, and a checkbox for whether you have a coupon.

Cyber Monday page (online deals): Know the sale time, save the code, and click with a plan. For up to three websites, write the site and the time its sale starts. Then list four items per site, with the regular price, the sale price, and the discount code.

A budget check on both pages: Write your spending limit, add up your planned items, and see right away whether you're under your limit before you leave the house or click "buy." The Cyber Monday page adds a three-question check to ask before you buy.

Why you'll love it:

• Free, with no complicated math
• Only 2 pages, and easy to read and print on any home printer
• Gives you a list to shop from, so you can stop at the items you planned
• Made for single-income households

Tip: Not sure of your limit? Find your Christmas number with the free Christmas Budget Calculator, also in The Solo Budget store.
