Instead of waiting until this Friday, we’re seeing pretty much every major retailer jump in on the holiday shopping fun earlier than normal. Part of this likely has to do with decisions to not open on Thanksgiving, along with trying to avoid massive crowds while still bringing you the best deals. Best Buy is one of these retailers participating in the early Black Friday fun, and we’ve rounded up some of our favorite deals so far.
