The one problem with Black Friday is fighting through all the crowds. Fortunately this year there’s a fix for the fire sale frustration. Royal Executive Transportation is offering a Black Friday full luxury shopping experience. We can pick up clients at their home and whisk them away to their preferred shopping locale. Instead of fighting through the post-Thanksgiving traffic you can sit back and strategize how you’re going to hit all the stores.
Of course luxury shopping doesn’t include walking from one store to the next while you juggle bags. Royal Executive Transportation can pick you up after each stop to tuck away you’re newly purchased gifts and let you take a break from the deals in the comfortable backseat of a stretch limo, luxury SUV and stylish sedan.
Ready to start your luxury shopping experience? Check out our guide to Austin Black Friday shopping in style. It’s a hit list for the best shopping centers and stores to visit this year.
Best Black Friday Shopping Centers
The Domain
When you are doing holiday shopping for discerning family members and friends there’s no better place to start your Black Friday than The Domain. There are more high-end retailers in this mall than anywhere else in Austin. While you’re there take a blow out break from shopping at Blo Beauty Bar or grab a bite to eat at Flemings Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar.
The San Marcos Premium Outlet
If you don’t mind making a short drive out of Austin, the San Marcos Outlet mall has a lot of luxury shopping options at discount prices year round. There are over 140 stores to be more exact. You and a few friends can easily spend an entire day here and still not hit all the shops.
Before Thanksgiving is even over select stores in the San Marcos Outlet mall will be opening their doors for the super-early sale shoppers. The sales begin as early as 6pm on November 28th, and their Midnight Madness event will make late-night shopping a must if you want first pick at sale items.
The Round Rock Premium Outlet
You can visit another Premium Outlet location a little closer to home in Round Rock. It’s newer which is nice, but it has fewer stores (125) than it’s San Marcos counterpart. The stores are also skewed slightly more towards what you would find in a regular mall. Still it’s got a lot of offer and both premium outlets started offering holiday savings on November 1st.
Second Street District
If you want to give gifts that are truly Austin one-of-a-kinds the Second Street District won’t disappoint. They may not boast as many Black Friday sales as the chain stores but they have a lot to offer. This is a perfect place to shop for friends and family that don’t live in the area but that enjoy visiting eclectic Austin.
Stores to Hit on Black Friday
The Apple Store
There’s only one time of year that Apple reduces the prices on their highly coveted products and that’s between Black Friday and Cyber Monday. You might just get lucky and get the new iPad Air and iPad mini for a little less than the regular sticker price at the Apple Store in The Domain.
H&M
The already ridiculously low-priced apparel store will practically be giving away their sale items. It’s a great place to pick up trendy pieces you’ll only wear for a few seasons or presents for the younger girls on your gift list.
Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th
High-end can be affordable when you go Off 5th. Luxury home goods, apparel and accessories all in one store, all for amazing prices.
Target
Target seems to have an endless supply of hip style for everything in your home. They were also the ones to create the limited edition retail designer brands that brought Isaac Mizrahi back to the forefront of fashion. Target recently announced that this year they will be opening their doors on Thanksgiving Day, so schedule in a shopping jaunt after you’re done eating.
Best Buy
If any electronics are on your shopping list Best Buy is the place to get them on Black Friday. The store never disappoints with discounted TVs, phones, games and more. This year they are also making Black Friday deals and door busters available online so you can shop from the comfort of your own home.
