Outdoor gear, winter clothing and coats, holiday decorations and gym equipment will all be cheaper come January. Interested in a Peloton bike? Those are also getting a massive price cut.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Subscribe to CNBC on YouTube.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/11\/19\/heres-what-to-buy-on-black-friday-and-what-to-leave-on-the-shelf.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supply chain setbacks are slowing the delivery<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":145205,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23051],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
