Over the last few years the best deals of technologies are available on Black Friday, a trend that so far looks to continue this holiday season also.
The products looking to see big discounts include 4K HDTVs, game consoles like the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 and computers.
Major retailers Amazon, Walmart, Target and Best Buy have yet to release their Black Friday plans, but some outlets have already begun releasing their promos or have seen them leak.
Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States – the fourth Thursday of November. Since the early 2000s, it has been regarded as the beginning of the Christmas shopping season in the US, and most major retailers open very early and offer promotional sales. Black Friday is not an official holiday, but California and some other states observe this as a holiday for state government employees
Earlier this week, Sam’s Club announced that they would begin offering deep discounts on electronics starting next Saturday, Nov 14, joining a growing list of stores offering one-day only pre-Black Friday sales.
During that sale, the Walmart subsidiary will be offering a 65-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV for $998 ($300 off) and $150 off an 64GB iPad Air 2 WiFi (normally at Sam’s Club for between $587 and $600).
Leaked ads from the retailer, spotted by TheBlackFriday.com, reveal potentially even better deals on a 50-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV for $498 (a savings of $230) and a PS4 bundle for $299 that also includes one free game (a savings of $50).
