If your plan today was to sit around and eat too much turkey and then sleep till Monday you are going to miss out on some incredible deals!!  This weekend is the most important weekend all year for retailers.  Because of that, many retailers are starting their online sales early to get you motivated to shop and make it easier.

Here are some I see:

Best Buy – GPS units starting at $99 with Free Shipping.

They also have Blu-Ray Movies starting at $8, and DVD’s for $4!

Gap - $10 Tops, Hats, Scarves , get 20% off your order with GAPTHANKS

Kohl’s – Over 400 Door Buster Deals that have already started! Use code EXTRA20 to get 20% off.

Children’s Toys 50% off:Fisher Price, Matchbox, Tonka, Playskool and more

Kitchen Aide Mixers for $155 after discount code! ($95 after rebates and Kohl’s cash!!)

Leap Frog – up to 65% off Site Wide starting today.

Lowes - 300+ deals plus free shipping.  (My father is excited about Black & Decker storage 50% off)

As with all online shopping make sure to go through Ebates to get cashback.

I can’t possibly find every amazing Black Friday Deal so if you find something leave a comment below and help others out!

    jcp.com also has some deals starting today. I got my mom a $60 buffet on sale for $30 with a $10 mail in rebate making it $20. I also got free shipping to the house using the code “startnow”

  • Adrienne

    Walmart has Leapster 2 on sale tonight at 12:01 for $25.00! I wander if I can use my $10.00 off leapster explorer coupon from the Cheerios box???? They also have Corell dish sets for $12.00. If you need new dishes, pots and pans, or bedding…. now is the time to get them. They also have king size sheet sets for $12.00.

    • Adrienne

      oops…. I think the Leapster 2 sale actually starts tomorrow at 5 am . It was in b/w the toys that start tonight. Sorry.

  • adrienne

    Oh and the pillow pets (which seem to be a big deal to the kids this year) are usually $19.99 at best but K-mart has them tomorrow for $10.00.

    • Dtreece07

      Where did you see this? I looked at every K-mart ad on their website and they were listed at $19.99? I wonder if this is in certain areas only? My kids really want these…..but I know next year they will be $1.00 in my yard sale! lol Thanks

      • Allyg24

        it was a different brand but it looks just like the real thing.

    • Vwalsh91

      You can get them online at Anna's Linens tonight for 7.99. They are the same thing but called Zoo Buddies.

      • Djo

        Did you have a coupon code?

  • http://www.facebook.com/laceyjakes Lacey Taylor Jakes

    We were able to buy the Nook at Bestbuy.com for $99 (their Black Friday price) – with free shipping! WE bought two – just had to do two separate orders :)

  • Tmcgready

    Can somebody explain ebates to me? I know I saw something on here but didn't read it. Not sure what it is or how to use it?

    • http://www.southernsavers.com/ Jenny
    • Chiefsangeleyes

      Ebates is basically a router site. Go to them. Sign up (easy and quick!) and then use THEIR search bar for store you want. Click “shop now” on THEIR SITE! As long as you do this you get whatever % cash back that store offers thru ebates. Some stores are only 1-2%, some 35%!!! It's amazing! You're gonna buy anyways, why not save a little. It isn't time consuming, I promise and it's easy way to get a little cash back. 4 times a year they mail you a check with earned money back. PLUS!!! You can refer ppl and once they spend $25 thru an ebates directed site, you make $5!! :) Usually they havea $5 sign up bonus to get ya started. Happy shopping.
      Oh, did I mention, they offer coupons too? Scroll down once you type in the store's name and check those out…sometimes they have great ones…just be sure to use the “shop now” button next to the coupon you wanna use and it'll apply it automatically :)

      • Tmcgready

        Thanks!

      • jbu

        Thank you for taking the time to explain this. :-)

  • Loess77

    Use code CSLEAP15 for 15% off Leapfrog website

    • Cathy

      I entered the code to buy a Leapster Explorer, but it is taking it off just before entering the pmt info. Do you know what the fine print is for the 15% off?

      • Loess77

        not sure what you mean or are asking it gave you the -$10.50 then when you get to the pmt page it takes another -$4.95 off for free shipping…I just did it myself to see.

  • Anna Steadman

    Happy Thanksgiving Jenny! You have saved my family a lot of money this year! Thank you!!!

  • Kb

    I can't see on the leapfrog site how I can just purchase the tag pen. Is that possible? I got 4 books for free at target lat week, so I think I just need the pen. Anyone have a thought.

    Thanks!

    • Paulmelanieg

      Go under preschool and click on Tag, then choose the category Tag Readers. You should be able to choose your color pen.

    • helpmesave

      Unless you're going to spend $50 to get free shipping, you may be better off buying it at Target. As far as I could tell the pen alone will be 25.49 after the 15% code and b4 tax. It's $25 at target and comes with a book. Although my target only had green and pink pens. (Looked at them yesterday)

  • Tracy

    So, the Best Buy items in the print ad for Black Friday are available online right now with Free Shipping!

  • Susan

    does anyone know if you can shop on line (@Wal-mart.com) tonight at mid-night and get the early bird electronic deals?

    • Ddcrafter

      most of the time the ad states 'in store only'.

    • Loess77

      from what Ive noticed it lists the availability with each item when you click the item underneath in small blue print. some say available instore only others list both so depends what you want

      • Susan

        I just checked on what I was wanting and it's available on-line also. Thanks for the info!

    • Mandy

      I was able to purchase the Kodak camera from the add today for the same price and free shipping to my home! Of course, you could also get free site-to-store.

  • Coleman19972000

    Disney Store- 20% off entire purchase. Use code THANKS when you check out. They are also running deals for 5, 10, 15 and 20 dollars. I got some cute ornaments for only $4 after the 20% off discount.

  • Alison V.

    LEAPFROG.COM DISCOUNT CODES:
    LFH5OFF- $5 off
    NEWSITEL2- free shipping if ordering leapster stuff, but shipping was $4.95 for me so other coupon saves me 5 cents more.
    Free shipping on orders over $50 anyway.

    Ebates says Leapster handheld on sale for 29.99 thru 11/26, but at leapfrog.com it says 39.99.

  • Edshadoff

    Just signed up for Ebates. Amazon or Target would be good!

  • maconchip

    Amazon has the Mad Men season on sale on DVD or Blu Ray for $9.99 each. Great deal!

  • Kristin N

    Just bought the Nikon Coolpix camera online at Target that was listed in the ad for tomorrow. ($79) Also used this code UZXPI33P and got an extra 10% off.

    • Marie

      PLEASE PLEASE tell how you got the $79 price for the Nikon camera already. I tried to buy it myself but it is only giving me the $99 price. Thanks so much for the code also!

      • Kristin N

        I just typed in the name nikon coolpix s203 in the search box on the Target site and it came up $79. You may have seen another nikon coolpix camera that is priced at $99.

        • Lelia

          Thank you so much! I just got it with the 10% off too! Awesome!

    • Michelle

      I really hope you get it but beware…last year I ordered a GPS from Target in their online black friday ad (but on Thanksgiving night)…they never shipped it and when I called about it about 3 weeks later, they said they'd run out and I should have received an e-mail stating so (I never did). Very unhappy as I would have gotten a better deal if I'd had more time to look around :(

    • Susanizanurse

      Thank you for posting! I just ordered one, used the code, & got it for $80.35! I am crossing my fingers & toes that it arrives in south GA in the very near future!

    • Gail

      There you are! I forgot who you were (chemo brain) and said thanks for the code on another site (?) I saved $11. with the code that you posted! Thanks you!

  • Kathlucky

    Amazon is reportly selling remaining Kindle 2 for $89 after midnight ET (black Friday) 1201 am while supply last. Trying to confirm. Also has some e books reduced to .99 for the day. Apps are free for other devices.

    • Kathlucky

      Kindle start time may be different. One sites says all black friday stuff starts 9 am PST. Best to you all

    • Ctkearns

      last years kindle started on sale yesterday at midnight for 89

    • Gretchen

      So did kindle 2's for $89 go on sale yesterday or is this a future deal? I haven't been able to find anything on amazon's site.

      • http://www.dinnerwithmikeandjen.blogspot.com/ MrsD05

        I haven't been able to find anything. Really want one! I have some Amazon gift cards from Swagbucks!

        • http://www.dinnerwithmikeandjen.blogspot.com/ MrsD05

          Their website is SO confusing right now so I called in and the operator didn't now anything about it but said that they're having great sales and its first come first serve and it may have been on sale and already sold out. I asked her to check and she could only tell me the current price.

          So basically, that was absolutely no help at all. Good luck to you. I had credit to use but doesn't look like this is going to be a deal for me.

  • Kilaatcheson

    If you shop at Target and get the gift card back for purchasing over $100 worth of merchandise, can you give the card to the peson behind you and do a seperate transaction and use the card right away? I ask because the XBox 360 will get a $50 card back plus the $10 card for spending over $100 and we were going to use them toward another item.

    • kim

      when i by diapers and get a gift card, they let me ring everything else up separatly and use the gift card right away. can't see it being any different friday!

      • Guest

        not suppose to allow you to do that.

  • Kay0716

    I would just like to say Thank You!!! For all you do Jenny You are truly Appreciated!!! I know this is a labor of love for you and we are so thankful for you. God Bless you and your family!!! :)

  • maconchip

    Any experienced Belk Black Friday shoppers out there? Does anyone know if the gift cards they are giving away to the first 250 customers tomorrow are the first 250 to walk through the door, or the first 250 to purchase an item?

    Thanks :)

    • Daddyschicks

      walk through the door, last year I got $10.

  • Ezsmom

    first to walk thru the door

    • Ezsmom

      at least that is what I have understood from my mom who works there.

  • Katie B

    has anyone out there got experience with Kohl's cash? Is the $50 before tax or after?

    • Nancybgood14

      before tax sorry. hth i love this store. they have great deal all year long.

  • kcreviews

    Just to let everyone know, the $75 for free shipping at Kohl's has to be AFTER you apply the 20% off code. It has to be over $75 AFTER the code is applied or they charge you shipping.

    • Vivianmarie244

      I found that out the hard way also. Didn't realize it until I finalized te order. So I called their customer service number and said if they were going to charge me shipping then I wanted to cancel my order. So, she removed the shipping. Sounded like I wasn't the only one they had heard from.

  • Crruthven

    THANK YOU JENNY!!! I just ordered a shark vacuum and steam mop for $108 including tax and shipping (free shipping). AND I will get $20 in KOHL'S CASH!! The regular price is $189. My husband's new “mop and bucket” (just kidding, honey!)

    • steph_rnld

      Thanks!! I just ordered a vac and steam mop too. With the code it made for a great deal!

  • Crruthven

    Any great laptop computers for sale online?

  • Vonnie

    I added code CONTACTFR to kohls.com order and got free shipping and a beautiful reversible bedding set for less that the doobuster price and never left my couch. I also got the $10 kohls cash black friday deal via e-mail!
    Thanks for the great info!

  • Thecouponkitty

    Just wanted to let people know that Target has a great deal on a Garmin nuvi 1450 GPS system. It's normally over $300, but they have it on sale for 159. If you enter code TGTGRM04, it takes $30 off of your order. Lifetime map and traffic updates are included, and it's a 5 in. screen. I've been shopping around for a good deal, and this is one of the best GPS systems i've found for the money. Happy shopping!

    • Sunny

      Thanks, I just ordered one! I have been wanting a GPS with the lifetime map and traffic updates, but they have been too expensive. Thanks for the information and the coupon code for $30 off. I also went thru Big Crumbs and will be receiving a 5.6% rebate. What a deal!!

  • Guest

    I would look at Amazon before buying anything elsewhere. They either beat them or matched most items so far.

  • AshATL

    I have a good GAP and Ebates tip: I just purchased about $200 worth of Gap, Old Navy, and Piperlime items the other day. Ebates gives only 2% back on Gap purchases but 8% back on Piperlime. Piperlime, Gap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy use a single shopping cart system though. SO, if you add items to your cart from Gap, then click through Ebates to Piperlime and check out from that page, you should be able to get 8% back on your Gap purchase! So far Ebates shows about $17 in rewards from that purchase. Would have been $4 clicking directly to the Gap page.

  • Jen W

    I was able to get free shipping WITHOUT spending $75 at Kohl's with code CONTACTFR; you can use it along with the code for the extra 20% off your order (EXTRA20).

  • Megan

    I also got free shipping on a $60 purchase (not $75) by using CONTACTFR. Paired it with EXTRA20.

    • Ariel

      Thank you so much for the tip!!! Using the 20% code with the code you mentioned for free shipping I was able to get my daughter 2 pairs pants, and myself a cardigan, a long sleeve tee, 2 sweaters and a pair of pants for only $62!!!!!!!

  • Kristina

    50%-70% at Aeropostale.com. ***Shirts as low as $5.25***
