Q: While it's important not to be carrying too much, things you will probably benefit from include: a watch so that you know the time, a cell phone to keep in touch with family members and friends also hitting the shops, and bags to carry your purchases in. Even if the stores provide bags, it is a good idea to bring along your own, stronger bags, especially if you plan on carrying the purchases around for a bit before putting them in the car or elsewhere.  Be sure to bring along your money! Do a double check before leaving the house to ensure that you have the relevant cards, cash, and vouchers you want to bring along. Check that you have your discount coupons and specials catalogs. Most importantly of all, be sure to bring along your list and a pen or pencil. Find a safe and easy place to keep it so that you can pull it out frequently to follow it and check things off. Plan meals and snacks into your shopping expedition. It can be too easy to forget food amid the rush for bargains but not eating for energy will leave you feeling tired and irritable, and more liable to blowing up at your fellow customers as they snatch the last limited bargain from under your nose.  Visit your favorite food spots to fill up on water, juices, and healthy snacks such as salads, sandwiches and rolls, steamed vegetables and roasted meats. Given that this is the day after Thanksgiving, go easy on the fast foods and try to avoid them if you can. Fatty and sugary foods will cause you to feel a temporary high and then a big crash, which will spoil your shopping experience. Rushing around all the time will wear out even the most ardent shopper. As well as ensuring you're eating properly during the day out, be sure to factor in some breaks for a breather and to regain your sense of humor so that you avoid Black Friday turning into Black Mood Friday! Read How to stay peaceful when mall shopping for more tips if you're mall shopping. You've done the planning and you have your map. Head forth with confidence.  Avoid sleeping in. The early bird definitely gets the worm on this day. Most people are up and out of the house before dawn. Most stores open much earlier than usual. Don't think you can sleep until 11:00 and still be able to find those Manolos for 50 percent less – they'll be gone before 7 am! Have your game face on and look determined and confident. You can't be a wuss and think that you have a fighting chance amongst the bargain shoppers on this day; assert yourself politely if someone barges in and takes your place in line. But be careful – some people will elbow, kick, pinch, anything it takes to get that last limited bargain, so choose your battles wisely – this is only shopping after all, not a do-or-die life choice. If you don't like people's behavior, don't push your luck because bargains aren't worth bruises. Do not leave your basket unattended. When you see an item you want, keep a tight hold on it; leaving it in an unattended basket will be too much temptation for some and things will "disappear" the moment your back's turned. If you can, try to avoid the layaway lines. You'll find yourself in one the entire day and miss out all the good stuff in other stores. Plus, everyone's heard more than a few horror stories where items were missing or hard to find when time came to pickup your layaway order. If it can't be avoided this shopping season, this is something to keep in mind for next year. Do a reality check now and then if you feel yourself getting hot under the collar. This is shopping, folks, just shopping. It is consumerism at its best (or worst depending on your viewpoint), and while participating in it in an orderly and considered way can reap you benefits, behaving like it's a race to the death is neither civil nor sensible. If you feel upset, exhausted, angry with your fellow shoppers, or as if you're about to physically or verbally lash out, your body is telling you it's time to go home. Bother the bargains – look after yourself and your family first. If the whole idea of shopping maniacally during sales really bothers you, participate in Buy Nothing Day instead. It's not without reason that it's celebrated on the same day when the manic panic of Black Friday shopping takes over a large proportion of the population!
A: Take along anything you need to help you. Ensure that you have plenty of sustenance. Plan breaks. Hit the shops! Keep your sanity intact.

Article: Your first idea may be to tell close friends and family that you are ready to get back on the circuit. Hopefully, these individuals will support you fully and be happy to connect you with a potential date who shares your interests. The problem is, it’s unlikely for you to meet someone new through such close social ties. Your circle of friends is probably limited to friends of yours and your spouses’ – not people you want to date. Pass the word along a little further to other people you know in passing like church members, friends of neighbors, or people you know from the local grocery or shops. Research shows good dating opportunities arise from such “weak ties”. Fill your social calendar with events where you can meet new people. Attending the same events you went to with your spouse may make you feel out of place going alone. Find new group activities that you enjoy and forge new friendships, opening yourself up to the opportunity of meeting potential dates. The courtship process may not have been carried out online before you were married. You may cringe at the idea of searching for dates online. You’ll be surprised to learn that many widows or widowers find successful and quality matches on many popular dating sites.  Be sure to practice online dating safety when connecting with others over the web. Refrain from posting your contact information like addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses. And, check your security settings on other social media platforms. Does a potential match seem too good to be true? Do your due diligence in verifying that the person is who he/she says by googling their name or conducting a reverse image search of the profile photo. Always make first acquaintances in public places and drive yourself to the meeting. Ensure that someone else knows where you are going and the time you anticipate being home. You may even consider bringing a friend along to sit at another table during the date. A good rule of thumb is daytime dates for first meets in a public, casual setting, such as a coffee shop or ice cream parlor. When you do progress to a dinner date, you don't have to pick your date up from her home or vice versa. It's perfectly acceptable to drive separate cars and meet up at a restaurant. Wait until you feel comfortable progressing the relationship to do so. Don’t rush things. Take your time to truly get to know the other person, and examine your interest and/or feelings for this person before advancing the relationship. Don't be afraid to keep it casual and simultaneously see several people before becoming exclusive with one. Refrain from feeling the need to hurry up and settle down again. Take the time to have fun, enjoy yourself, and see what compatible dates are out there for you.
