Also, if you just search “black friday” in twitter you can come up with a lot of links directly from retailers, or other black friday sites.

Interesting tidbit:cyber monday was created in 2005, after retailers noticed that a significant increase in sales on the Monday following Thanksgiving in 2004. They attributed it to the fact that most shoppers went back to work on Monday and with the higher internet connection, did online shopping. Even though most of us can shop at our home computers now with high-speed internet connection, retailers had their first ever billion dollar online shopping day on the Monday following Thanksgiving in 2010. Retailers believe many still shop from work on cyber monday and it has become as much of a tradition as black friday to many. So I think you can expect to look for continued deals throughout the Thanksgiving weekend and through November 26th.

Good luck! Happy Shopping!
