Amazon’s Black Friday 2018 Sales Give Shoppers An Early Jump On Big Deals


Even people who say they hate shopping can’t pass up the amazing deals that Black Friday brings. The day after Thanksgiving has become synonymous with some of the best sales of the years, even on high-ticket items. Retailers mark the official start of the holiday shopping season with serious markdowns. Forbes reports that this year, retail king Amazon is beating the likes of Walmart and Best Buy to the punch by offering Black Friday discounts now, two weeks before Thanksgiving. Here are some of the best deals you can find on their site right now.

Of course, retailers are always about promoting their own brand above others when possible, when they have their own brand. An ever-expanding line of proprietary products is one of the secrets to Amazon’s continued success, and they’re doing what they can to entice buyers who have yet to purchase their line of electronic devices to take the plunge. For those trying to stick to a budget this holiday season, they’re even throwing in refurbished and trade-in items this year. Here are just a few of their sales on new items.
