Black Friday is unexpectedly a great time to get deals on regular stuff, those everyday essentials. It might be strange to see an amazing deal on, you know, toys for your dog alongside deals on a MacBook, but it does happen.

So if you're somebody who is always looking for the latest and greatest tech, Black Friday might not be great for you in that respect.

The other product categories that don't see discounts on Black Friday itself are from brands or retailers that do not participate in the event. And those do exist.

Yes, I was just doing this yesterday, in fact, with one of our waffle maker picks. Basically what I do and what I would recommend that shoppers do is I match the exact model number from the review that you're looking at or from the ad that you're looking at against the model number that you see at the product listing. And that's a way to guarantee that you're getting exactly what you wanted.
