Savvy shoppers won’t want to miss the best early Black Friday deals.

Historically, Black Friday used to be a one-day shopping extravaganza on the day after Thanksgiving. You’d set your alarm for an ungodly hour in the morning to secure the doorbuster deals (if you could get past the swarms of people crowding the entrance.)

Black Friday then started spilling over into Thanksgiving Day, as stores saw opportunities to get customers in the store for discounts after they enjoyed their holiday feast. This year, that will change as many stores will stay closed for Thanksgiving Day.

Best Early Black Friday Deals

For 2020, retailers knew they would have to redefine holiday shopping, including the tradition of Black Friday. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a great deal of uncertainty for shoppers and retailers.

While many stores will be open on Black Friday (check your local stores’ hours), most retailers know many customers will want to settle into their couch and do their shopping. In fact, about 60% of people surveyed by Deloitte said they prefer online shopping to go to a physical store during the holiday season.

To attract these online shoppers, retailers have kicked off early Black Friday savings events, both online and in their stores. The typical collection of big-ticket sale items such as TVs, video games, smartphones, laptops, toys, and more are still the highlight of these events. But now, shoppers can get earlier access to the deals.

Here is a rundown of some of the best early Black Friday deals available right now.
