Happy Black Friday, GOLDA gang! There’s nothing quite like a day that unites us all in our love of shopping—and, of course, deals. I’ll be observing Black Friday at the Short Hills Mall with my in-laws, a proud Cohen family tradition. 

Honestly though, going to a mall on Black Friday feels almost quaint these days. It’s hardly crowded, filled only with the true adventure (and nostalgia) seekers. 

It’s almost too easy to spend the day scrolling and shopping on our phones. But it’s still possible to be thoughtful with our purchases, and ensure they make an impact. 

With that in mind, here are 18 deals from our favorite Jewish small businesses—many of whom we’ve featured in GOLDA this year—plus our picks for what to buy from each.

Jewish Book Council Recommends:

Ilana Kurshan’s Children of the Book is a testament to the importance of books and reading in a household. Kurshan describes her love of literature, both secular and Jewish, and how it has influenced her relationship with her children. By weaving together lessons of the Torah with a general passion for reading, Kurshan demonstrates how books shape us and the lives we lead.
