Update (11/26 10:30pm): Newegg offers the Google Chromecast streaming dongle for $22.99 shipped. 

As part of its “Black Friday All Week Long” sale, Staples is already offering Black Friday pricing on the Beats Solo HD headphones at $100 off and the Amazon Fire TV Stick for $24 (Reg. $39). But you’ll also find the Google Chromecast streaming dongle for $25 with free in-store pickup or free shipping on orders of $35 or more. Pick up a second Chromecast or even the above Fire TV Stick to hit that threshold. At $25, this is matching the best price we’ve seen from leaked Black Friday ads.

It allows you to beam online video, music, photos and more to your big screen via smartphones, tablets and computers (Android phones and tablets, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Chromebooks). It offers a continually growing list of streaming channels including Netflix, YouTube, HBO Go, Hulu Plus, Pandora, ESPN, MLB.TV, Google Play Movies and Music, Plex, MLS, crackle, Vevo, Rdio.

AmazonDeals

Update (11/23 8:00am): Staples now has it for $24. Skip the shipping cost by picking it up at a nearby store.

Amazon is sold out of its Fire TV Stick until next year, but Best Buy has them in-stock and discounted down to $24.99 (36% savings). Opt for free in-store pickup or pad your order to at least $35 for free shipping.

Now, that’s not as low as the $19 intro deal that Amazon ran, but that was limited to Prime members and was only available for 48 hours. Today is your chance to get your hands on an Amazon Fire TV Stick before Christmas and save $14. It’s win-win.

Early reviewers rate it 3.7 out of 5 stars.

Black Friday ad roundup: eBay Daily Deals will have PS4 for $330, iPhone 6 discounts, iTunes cards 25% off, more

-
eBay Daily DealsWalmartDealsNeweggBlack Friday

This time next week we’ll all be recovering from our Black Friday hangover and prepping for Cyber Monday. But before that, we have a whole lot of deals (and turkey!) to splurge on.

eBay Daily Deals is one of our favorite places to score a hot deal and we finally have its Black Friday plans. As expected, it includes some pretty great deals.

PlayStation 4 will be just $329.99, which is the lowest price we have ever seen and better than any other pre-announced Black Friday deal. We’re not sure on exact models or pricing, but the ad states that iPad Air 2 will get a 20% discount. An unlocked iPhone 6 will be available for $639.99. That’s just a $10 discount but it’s still notable since it’s the first deal we’ve ever seen on Apple’s latest smartphone and you can potentially save on sales tax at the time of purchase. The $35.99 Xbox Live 12-month Gold Membership and 25% iTunes gift card discount are also extremely strong deals.

Head below for Black Friday ads from Newegg, Microsoft, Sprint, Monoprice and a first look at Walmart’s Cyber Monday plans:

Walmart’s Pre-Black Friday sale is now live: HDTVs, kitchenware, personal goods, much more

-

Update (11/21 1:00pm): While a few of the HDTV deals (and other things) have sold out now online, there is still a wide selection of deals to be had on home goods, electric shavers and more.

We’re officially knee deep in Black Friday deals. Some of Walmart’s Pre-Black Friday deals have gone live a little early.

Most notably, there are two different 40-inch LED HDTVs for just $115 with free in-store pickup:

Both of those deals are far the lowest price we have ever seen on any 40-inch HDTV. If both remain in-stock, then I would choose the Emerson model due to it having a higher refresh rate.

Other deals include:

You can also find 32GB iPod touches in every color $20 off. That’s not the best prices we’ve ever seen but a nice way to spend some gift cards that you know have in your pocket.

Check out our preview of Walmart’s Pre-Black Friday sale to get an idea of other deals we’re expecting to see.

Review/Giveaway: Aukey 4-port car charger delivers fast charging to 4 tablets at once: $17 Prime shipped (66% off)

Seth Weintraub -
Dealsaukey

Sometimes it is hard to be definitive on “Best of” products. On car chargers, it now isn’t. I’ve been using the Aukey Quad-port car charger for a few weeks and it is the most powerful, most solid, has the most ports and is one of the smallest I’ve tried. It also holds up well after multiple insertions and removals and it looks as good as a car charger is going to get. It also has a chip inside that not only knows how much charge to deliver to each port, but it also knows when the charge is complete and will shut down.

We’re talking no-brainer territory here.

Even if you have USB ports in your car, they likely don’t quick charge iPhone 6s s and iPads. This one does. Up to 4 of them at a time via the 48W/9.6A total output.

Amazon is currently offering the Aukey Quad-port car charger for $16.99 with free Prime shipping. That’s 66% off!

Oh, and as sad as it is for me, I’ll send this slightly used demo unit to someone who shares 9to5toys/this post on social media or signs up for our newsletter (US only).

Walmart Pre-Black Friday sales event starts this Friday, includes an iPad Air 2 for $489 with a free $100 gift card

-
WalmartDealsBlack FridayBlack Friday 2014

Update (11/20 10:30am): Walmart has released the full details of tomorrow’s Pre-Black Friday sale. Deals include a Playstation 4 with a free $50 gift card, a 40-inch HDTV for $115, Samsung Chromebook for $199 with a free $50 gift card, and the iPad/iPhone deals already mentioned below.

Walmart is keeping its promise to make Black Friday a monthlong sales event. We’ve already seen several doorbuster level deals from Walmart in the past week, but the big-box retailer has a couple more tricks up its sleeve.

Beginning at 8am on Friday, Walmart “will be matching or beating select Black Friday offers from top national competitors on items.” The press release is extremely vague when it comes to specific deals, but it did out one that we are especially excited for:

The included gift card brings the total effective iPad Air 2 price down to $389. Now, Target charges $10 more for the same iPad Air 2, but will beat Walmart by including a free $140 gift card. The only catch is that you may have to fight crowds or get lucky online to snag that deal. My advice is to grab whichever deal you happen to find in stock.

This sale also includes an iPhone 6 with a free $75 gift card for $179.

Check back Friday morning for our rundown of Walmart’s top Pre-Black Friday deals.

Apple MacBook Pro w/ Retina (late 2013) up to $200 off: 15-inch $2,000, or less with .edu

Justin Kahn -

Update (11/20 4:259m): The below 13” MBP w/ Retina is now out of stock. and the 15″ inch is only available for in-store pickup.

Best Buy has a couple late 2013 MacBook Pros with deep discounts today. The 13.3” MacBook Pro with Retina display (ME866LL/A) is $1,359.99 shipped, which is as much as $340 or more under some listings and $140 under the next best price we can find from a trusted retailer. It has a 2.6GHz processor, 8GB RAM and 512GB of flash storage. While the newer models are slightly faster, some feel that considering the price difference the late 2013 models can offer a better value for users that don’t require the latest and greatest hardware. A current gen model with similar specs will run you as much as $1800.

You’ll also find a late 2013 15” model (ME294LL/A) for $1,999.99 shipped, which is down as much $500 compared to other retailers and $200 under the next best price we can find. It packs a 2.3GHz processor, 16GB RAM and 512GB of flash storage. More details on both models below.

Review and deal code: Lumsing long-life/rugged stereo Bluetooth/NFC portable speaker: $28 Prime shipped (Reg. $80)

Jared Weintraub -
Deals

The rugged Lumsing stereo speaker with NFC is an amazing little portable speaker that pairs easily and has a crazy long battery life (up to 25 hours of continuous play). I got it to try out yesterday and am still waiting for the battery to die. As for sound, this isn’t in the Bose/Ultimate Ears range but it it is enjoyable in a mildly quiet environment and the rubberized exterior bounces when dropped (rather than breaking/exploding). Oh, and it has a handy carry cable that can attach to just about anything.

It also has a mic for conference calls but people on the other end might hear a bit of an echo – at least that’s what I was told on a recent call. But hey, you really can’t go wrong for a $30 Bluetooth speaker.

If you don’t like the green theme here, it also comes in Blue and pink. Oh and about that price…

Amazon has it for $35.99 but today only, when you enter the coupon code: LUMSING1 the price drops to only $27.99 Prime shipped (free trial of Prime). That’s $52 off the list price and the best offer we’ve seen.
