Whether you observe Black Friday or not, it's coming. Even if you opt out of the shopping extravaganza, you can still get some specials on food.
Black Friday, the big shopping day the day after Thanksgiving, is a big deal, of course. Last year, it was the top shopping day for November, in stores and online, according to research firm Circana. That's in part because consumers expect to get the best holiday discounts then, Circana says.
Even super-shoppers may need to fortify themselves amid a day of discount-hunting. So why stop searching for specials when it's time to dine? Many restaurants and food stops also offer bargains on gift cards, which work great as stocking stuffers – or as gifts for friends and co-workers.
Here are some Black Friday food discounts for your consideration:
