The online retailer launched the Black Friday Deals store on November 2 to house “tens of thousands of deals” on a wide variety of products, including electronics, toys and clothing. Those moves follow announcements from Toys R Us, Target, Macy’s and Sears that they would open their doors at the same time they did previous year. Customers who will purchase either models will stand a chance of earning up to $250 worth of gift cards.

Rumor has it the Xbox One will be available with a price tag of $299.99 at Wal-Mart along with a $30 to $50 gift card, iDigital Times reported.
Other devices Target will offer at huge discounts are the Polaroid 9 tablet at around $111 and Apple’s Beats Pill portable wireless speaker for only $171.
It isn’t Black Friday anymore, neither it is Black Friday weekend or Black Friday deals week!
But Minneapolis-based Target is spreading out the deals with daily promotions that begin November 22, the Sunday before Thanksgiving, and continue until December 4. Staples, too, which has previously opened on Thanksgiving, made a decision to start its in-store sales on Black Friday this year because it wants “our customers and associates to enjoy Thanksgiving their own way”.
And REI CEO Jerry Stritzke says he’s paying his employees to take Black Friday off to “remind ourselves of the essential truth that life is richer, more connected and complete when you choose to spend it outside”. A $706 iPad Air 2 will come with a US$150 gift card, while the iPad Air – at $564 – will have a US$100 gift card.
Vizio’s $1,499.99 worth 65-inch 4K Ultra HD smart LED TV is now available for $999.99 as part of the Black Friday Deal.
Aside from the Apple Watch, Target will also be offering Black Friday deals on certain iPad models.
Retailers are opening Thanksgiving Day as they attempt to get a leg up on the rest. As MacRumors notes, picking up third-party retailers’ deals on Apple Products is a pretty good idea, since as Apple never gives discounts on much of anything.
A few discounts will also be available the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

Meanwhile, the store just held a Black Friday “preview” deal this week which included a 25% price slash on Apple’s last-gen Apple TV.
