Hello Occu V !
It's everyone's favorite shopping weekend of the year! 🥳
Now, I don't know about you but I would rather sit on hot coals than try and barge through the stampedes of 4 AM Black Friday shoppers at Target to save 5% on a TV I don't need 😳. And, let's be real, leaving the house to get a discount over the Thanksgiving sales weekend is so 2019.
So, grab yourself a cup of tea, put your feet up and get ready to save yourself some serious bucks with these INSANE Black Friday offers.
I've split these up into travel deals and blogging/digital nomad deals, so that everyone bags a steal. You can check out all the details HERE.
Save AT LEAST 30% on Booking.com
Let's kick things off with what is arguably THE best deal of the year. Honestly, Booking.com giving us such a massive discount is basically like Santa Claus coming early (Saint Nick if you're reading this, we're still expecting our stocking on Christmas day🎅.) There are over 2 million properties on the site, which means unless you want to stay in an igloo surrounded by a dancing troop of penguins, you'll find a hotel for your next trip.
Did we mention, you can also save up to 25% on car rental, so you can kick your new year road trip off with a bang!
Up to 40% off at Gravel Travel
Have you ever watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and wished you were Augustus Gloop accidentally chomping into his golden ticket? Well, now you can be! On top of giving you a major saving of up to 40% on all your travel essentials, Gravel Travel is also hiding two golden tickets in orders every week, giving winners a $500 flight ticket. No question, that is the BEST gift with purchase.
Save $10 PLUS 4 months free on Worldpackers

Save up to 50% on Nomatic
Most backpacks are not travel friendly...am I right? You end up practically snapping your laptop in half trying to cram it in your bag, then when you finally do, there's no space left for anything else. UGH. Make the most of Nomatic's sale and cut your airport stress in half immediately.
Save on Amazon's Black Friday deals
Jess Bezos is like Marmite...you either love him or you hate him. BUT, you can't deny he comes through with the Black Friday deals.

Save $75 on your WayAway Membership
What's the number one thing getting in the way of you booking a trip every month in 2023? I'm gonna guess...flight prices.
