Best Retail Stores for Black Friday Deals in Kentucky
With Black Friday just over a week away, and with the help of WalletHub, a leading personal finance site, we've compiled a list of stores that offer the best-advertised discounts and for which items. It's time to check out the ads and formulate a plan for the biggest shopping day of the year.
Have you been waiting all year to get out and shop for those deals that so many stores will be offering? Many major retailers and direct-to-consumer companies have already started posting Black Friday deals ahead of Friday, November 25th, 2022. I have too many anxiety issues to handle all of those crowds. Do you venture out for the big Black Friday sales?

Thankfully WalletHub did all of the work for us. They surveyed nearly 4,000 deals from 16 of the biggest U.S. retailers’ and below are the results.
