I haven't a clue since my shopping is done well before Thanksgiving each year. I watch for the deals all year round and then wait till after Christmas to snag a few more when I wander some of my favorit stores.

There is a black friday website I used to use (I can't remember the name off hand) that had all the deals posted and would tell you them in advance.  Now, I just go to the websites for Walmart, Big Lots, Big 5, Home Depot and Lowes.  Those tend to be the only places I'm likely to spend.  I might check out the local gun stores too.  I bought my Beretta M9 on Black Friday years ago.

We found that we get the best deals when a retailer is on the verge of bankruptcy, and are forced by their creditors to start liquidating everything before the bankruptcy teams come in and dilute their payouts. Last year it was Radio Shack, so we picked up a ton of stuff that we are giving away this year.

Judith - A combination of weekly ads, online searching, and apps are used to find the best holiday deals. Of course my wife does most of that, as I am not much of a shopper.

The definition of "deal" is so subjective --- it's kind of like cost and value.   Depending on the purchase, it's either a quick decision or one that requires more time, thought and research.   

My answer is based on the situation at hand so with the permission of Roger D. Mucci and others who know me well and say It Depends.
