Here's a list of the best 2019 Black Friday tech deals

You're sitting at your computer, eyes glazed over from trying to sort through the thousands of pages of Black Friday ads in search of a deal. If that sounds like you, stop what you're doing and watch the story in the video above, then check out the links in this article for all of the deals.

Holiday shopping season starts in earnest in just a few days, with the super bowl of retail events — Black Friday. But there are so many advertised deals, it’s often hard to figure out just where to begin.

“Best Buy alone has hundreds of pages in their ad scan, so that’s thousands of products per sale," said Josh Meyes, CEO of Slickdeals.net. He says his community of users can save you time and actually help you find the best deals. “They’re shopping and finding great deals, so imagine if you had 11 million friends telling you where you should buy your next TV, your apple watch, your laptop.”

Slickdeals.net is kind of like a social media channel. Users can give a product — like a TV or smartwatch — a thumbs up depending on how good the deal is and it's all consumer-based. For the deals we didn’t include in the video above, see the list below.
