If you’re itching to do a little holiday gift shopping right now, you’re in luck.
Many retailers are offering early Black Friday sales this year to accommodate early bird deal-seekers.
So while the actual Black Friday — which falls on Nov. 25 this year — is three weeks out, we were able to round up several deals at national retailers that are worth checking out.
Be sure to do your homework by taking a minute to compare prices. Early deals include true steals, but sometimes you might want to try your luck by waiting to see if a price drops later this month.
As always, don’t forget to maximize your savings by paying with discounted gift cards from marketplaces like Raise and Cardpool, and get cash back by using portals like Ebates, Mr. Rebates, Swagbucks or Top Cash Back.
