If you’re looking for a Black Friday deal but you don’t want more stuff, you’re in luck.
With more people opting for “experience” gifts during the holidays, it appears the trend has extended to other shopping-heavy holidays such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Here’s a list of some no-stuff Black Friday or Cyber Monday deals so you can get a sweet deal without hoarding more junk.
Shaw is offering $150 online credit to new customers who sign up for basic Internet 50 or 300 on two-year terms ($45 a month for the first year), and $200 online credit to those who order BlueCurve Internet 300 or 600, also on two-year terms ($65 a month for the first year).
Those who bundle their BlueCurve Internet 300 with a Total TV package on a two-year term, at a cost of $89 a month for the first year, will get $300 online credit.
The company says it is the lowest price they’ve ever offered on their BlueCurve packages which, on a month-to-month term, cost about $90 a month for the first year and go up from there. For more information or to compare plans, visit their website.

If your New Year’s resolution is to go with the flow or be more flexible, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness is offering a one-year unlimited membership for $899. The offer is available beginning Friday and ends on Dec. 1. Quantities are limited so you’ll have to be quick.
Drop-in classes cost $19 each and a one-year unlimited membership usually goes for about $1,200 so at $899, if you go at least once a week, you’ll at least be matching the cost of drop-in classes. For more information and to see studio locations, visit their website.
