Black Friday Safety Precautions

Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping days of the year and millions of American shoppers choose to venture out well before sunrise in an attempt to get the best deals of the season. While it can be a great deal of fun and even be extremely exciting to shop during the nighttime hours, it can also be extremely dangerous and leave you at a high risk for being a victim of theft.

Black Friday Safety Precations: Ron Daniels of www.TheUltimateLock.com Gives Black Friday Shopping Safety Rules and Tips

To help prepare shoppers for the upcoming Black Friday shopping day, Ron Daniels appeared on Fox 26 News this week, talking about Black Friday shopping safety issues and rules to follow.

Mr. Daniels reminds shoppers to use these following Black Friday safety precautions:

• Never leave valuables or prior purchases in view, in the car. Thieves are just as excited about Black Friday as many shoppers are, because they know they can easily break the windows of a car and take recent purchases while the shopper is busy in their next store.

• Park under a light post. Since most shoppers are venturing out after dark on Black Friday, it’s important they find the best lit areas to park in. This will keep them safe from criminals and will also deter criminals from trying to break in their car while they’re in the store.

• Keep an eye on the shopping center’s security officers or security post. Most modern shopping centers employ their own security guards and by parking near their station, shoppers can deter thieves.
