Sure it's time for turkey and stuffing, but it's also time for some of the craziest sales of the year. So where can you find the best deals? And how do you separate the items you should buy on Black Friday from the 'filler deals', the products stores promote as marked down, when in reality they'll get much cheaper as the holidays approach?

The One Day Apple Discounts its Products
Apple regularly discounts its products on Black Friday — the day after Thanksgiving. Both in store and online, they offer 7-10% off popular items. That's about $100 off laptops, $40 off the iPad, and $10 off the iPod nano. Best Buy usually discounts its Apple products, just a little more than the company itself. Last year, for example, they offered $45 off the iPad. But even those aren't always the best Black Friday deals for this gear.Gift Card Deals

- Kanye West's Angry 'SNL' Rant Makes Saturday's Season Finale a Must-Watch
This coming weekend is a big one for Saturday Night Live. It marks the end of Bill Hader's tenure on the show and Ben Affleck's fifth time hosting. But perhaps the most significant reason to tune in is the fact that Kanye West is the musical guest, and he's making it seem like he really, really doesn't want to be.
