Christmas Stuff 2012: what is black friday

A few days ago we posted the Best Buy Preview ad, but now with the addition of three extra pages, we're thinking this is the real deal. The additional three pages are loaded with Apple products, laptops, desktop computers and accessories. The doors open at 12:00 am Friday and tickets will be handed out two hours before the midnight opening. If you want to get started early, there are online deals beginning Thanksgiving Day and the additional bonus of free shipping.

We spotted some great deals in the flyer -- here are some of our favorites:

(Doorbuster) Toshiba 40" Class LCD HDTV at over 58% off for $179.99

(Doorbuster) Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 with $20 BestBuy Gift Card for $179.99

iPhone 4S 8G with 2-Year Activation only $1

We know there will be some disappointment that BestBuy didn't have more doorbusters in store, but on the bright side, now shoppers can start mapping out their Black Friday shopping in earnest. Check out the entire Best Buy Black Friday ad here.

We originally posted Dollar General's Black Friday Ad back on Oct. 31st but had to take it down. We just got the go ahead to re-post so check it out!
