Like the rest of the holiday season, Black Friday seems like it starts earlier every year, so it feels like we’ve been leaking deals and doing round ups for ages. Yet, perversely, despite the wretched economy and crushed consumer confidence, this Black Friday also appears to be the least OMFGtastic ever, making the real deals harder to tease out, so you don’t know if standing for hours in the cold and losing the ability to produce offspring is really worth it. So just like last year, we’ve rounded up and sorted through all of the real deals for you, broken down by category and merchant. If you know how to survive, this is the only Black Friday deal list you need. Update: Apple deals added just now.
