Get Your Black On

In the greatest city in the world, where shopping just happens to be the number one pastime, Black Friday just might be the biggest day of the year. So, how to navigate through the crazy crowds and find the deals worth striking? Your first stop will probably be a Starbucks (shoot for side streets as opposed to avenues to avoid long lines). Your second stop should be one of the top spots listed here. And at the end of the day? Nothing rounds out a day of damage like a hot cup of spiked cider. Scope out the ice rink at the Standard downtown for skating, snacks, and booze at the end of your crazy day of shopping.
