Pre-Black Friday SALES

In anticipation of Black Friday, many retailers are starting to throw pretty good offers at us. The question stands, will Black Friday bring better offers, and if so, will the coveted items still be in stock by then? As crazy as it seems to get hooked by a discount offer a few days before the BF, I do believe that certain very popular items might sell out with the speed of light and so purchasing them now at 30% off might be more prudent than waiting for 35% or 40% discount, if it will come at all. Of course when it comes to items that are not a "must have", being patient and getting the best possible deal is the way to go. 

Here's the breakdown of today's deals.
