The holiday shopping season kicks off in a big way next week when retailers in and near Lutz officially celebrate Black Friday.

That fabled day after Thanksgiving is one of the biggest sales days of the year for many stores – both national, big box chains and local retailers. It’s also one of the best days to save on items big and small as retailers pull out the stops to offer amazing deals to get customers in their doors.

The latter is exactly why we want to help Lutz Patch readers map out a Black Friday game plan. But to do that, we need your help.
