How to get the most from Black Friday
- Buy annual, not monthly. Most deals only apply to yearly plans, which is where the biggest savings are.
- Check the renewal price. Many discounts only cover the first year.
- Try it first. Use a free plan or trial before the sale so you know the tool fits.
- Read the refund terms. AppSumo deals usually come with a refund window, but it varies by deal.
- Skip what you won’t use. A 70% discount on a tool you never open is still money lost.
