It’s that time of the year. After you chow down on your momma’s Thanksgiving cooking, you break out the credit card and start swiping to take advantage of those Black Friday doorbuster deals from the couch.

Over the years, the approach to Black Friday has changed dramatically. No longer is it just relegated to people running to department stores like Best Buy or GameStop to take advantage of great sales prices. Now, most of the sales happen on websites.

Also, most Black Friday deals take place days before November 25, giving shoppers a head start on their holiday shopping. While you can find anything on sale during the shopping holiday, Black Friday is the best time to stock up on new video games, gaming accessories, laptops, VR headsets, smartphones, and other items.

Luckily for you, Hip-Hop Wired is here to help you navigate the many deals out there.
