Should I monitor competitor Black Friday ads?

As an e-commerce business owner preparing for the critical Black Friday season, I'm wondering how much attention I should pay to my competitors' advertising strategies. I know monitoring competitors can provide valuable insights, but I'm unsure about the time investment, potential benefits, and specific aspects I should analyze. I want to ensure I'm making strategic decisions without getting distracted by every move my competitors make.
