An Early Look at Black Friday Deals

We know, you haven't even put the Thanksgiving turkey in the oven yet and we're already talking Christmas. But ever since 1941 when Franklin D. Roosevelt proclaimed the fourth Thursday in November to be our national holiday for all things turkey, the next day has turned into a shopping bonanza for those eager to get a jump start on the Christmas buying season.
