The 2023 Black Friday deals event is now just two weeks away, and while the old adage was that you could only find the very best offers on Black Friday itself, that is not the case anymore.

Excellent Black Friday deals are available right now thanks to a host of retailers that have already launched sales, like Walmart, Best Buy, Target, Lowe's, and Amazon. That means you can score a record-low price today and spread out your holiday shopping. Below, I've listed all the top Black Friday sales around the web, followed by today's 40 best deals I recommend on TVs, kitchen appliances, Apple devices, vacuums, laptops, mattresses, and gift ideas.

Some highlights from today's deals - all of which include record-low prices - are the all-new Apple Watch 9 on sale for $349 (was $399) at Amazon, this 65-inch 4K smart TV from Hisense, marked down to a stunning price of $499.99 (was $1,199) and the viral Bissell Little Green carpet cleaner on sale for $89 (was $123.59) at Walmart.

Remember that most of today's Black Friday deals include best-ever prices, and Best Buy even has a price match guarantee. So, if the price of an item goes lower during the holiday season, the retailer will match it.
