Plus how to answer 'Tell me about yourself'
| | Now that we’re nearing the end of the year, it’s a great time to view your Amazon order history report and (sigh) evaluate your spending. Even if you don’t use Amazon much, you can still check to see if Prime is worth your money. I like to review what I bought to see what worked and what didn’t so I can hopefully be more selective in the future. In this spirit, we asked HuffPost editors across our newsroom which products they bought this year that they love, and they shared their tried-and-true best buys from household supplies to cooking gear to one very strange-looking massager. Check out our list, plus more handy life tips below.

| | | | | Think that Black Friday “deal” is a real steal? Maybe not. One tactic retailers use to make their sales seem more dramatic is inflating prices several weeks prior to Black Friday. That makes it look like they’re really slashing prices when Black Friday rolls around. We can’t recommend enough that you research an item in advance to find out what it normally sells for.
Here are 8 more ways retailers trick you into spending money on Black Friday, including the way they lay out their stores and how your brain is susceptible to the sunk cost fallacy when it comes to doorbusters.
