Once upon a time, Americans lined up in droves outside Walmarts and Targets, still full from Thanksgiving dinner, so they could be first in the door at midnight. Thankfully, these frenzied Black Friday free-for-alls are a relic of a bygone era. Now, not only can you order all of the best Black Friday deals online, but for the past few years, retailers have also been launching their Black Friday sales weeks in advance of Thanksgiving.
Case in point: Amazon, Best Buy, and now Walmart have all kicked off their official Black Friday sales. So, ready or not, Black Friday is here. You can tell because Mashable is once again working around the clock to bring you live updates on all of the latest sales, standout deals, price drops, and inventory updates. Already, we've spied record discounts on flagship noise-cancelling Sony headphones, Apple MacBooks and AirPods, Dyson appliances, and some of the year's most popular tech gifts.
