“It’s important for shoppers to ignore the Black Friday percent-off claims, as it’s very likely that the advertised amount of the discounts may be inflated”, NerdWallet shopping manager Katrina Chan told the site’s Courtney Jespersen.

They are going to run three different doorbuster events, the first starting on Thanksgiving night.
For instance, 2014 was the first year that online shopping took over physical stores globally. The reason that the company chose to move the start time of the sale is that Thanksgiving and Black Friday are expected to show stronger growth in online sales this year.
The biggest online shopping day of the year, known as Cyber Monday, will begin this year at 8 PM EST on Sunday night, according to a report on Reuters.

Last year a total of $2.038 billion was spent online through desktops alone on Cyber Monday, for a 17% gain from the year before.
