You've barely made a dent in the Halloween candy (we hope), but the call of Christmas is already out there. There are plenty of retailers with lights and trees twinkling in store windows. However, Amazon is making that early planning more enticing and cost-effective. Today, the retailer announced plans to open it its Black Friday Store.
While we do expect a flood of Black Friday deals to be announced in the coming weeks, Amazon is making it easy to get some of that shopping done today, and at a discount. The online retailer plans to announce offers on a daily and even hourly basis.
Of course, there's no actual storefront, but the website does have a unique section dedicated to discounts and other offers on hundreds of popular gift items like cameras, GPS navigators, video games, movies, and more. Strap on your bathrobe and bunny slippers, and get ready for some bargain hunting. Check out Amazon's Black Friday page now for all of your holiday shopping needs:
The retailer says that the above link will be live from now through Black Friday (November 25, 2011).
One current hot deal is on LG's 42-inch 42LV5400 1080p LED HDTV. Amazon currently has this 42-incher for $120 off the list price, making it $679.97 shipped. This unit offers a full 1080p HD image, as well as LED backlighting, TruMotion 120Hz technology, and four HDMI inputs. One big hook, however, is the addition of Smart TV. This little feature allows you to access a ton of content, including movies, apps, web browsing and more, all through the included motion-controlled Magic Remote.

If you're in need of a little music, Amazon also has the JBL On Stage IIIP Portable Speaker Dock on sale. The current price on this one is $89.99 shipped, which is 47 percent off the list price. Compatible with most iPod and iPhone models, this portable device allows you to enjoy music right from your desktop. It also includes its own remote for easy use -- even from across the room.

Amazon says that upcoming deals will includes other docks, as well as HDTVs, cameras, GPS units, Blu-rays, and more. We can also expect to see some bundle deals and other packages, so make sure to visit Amazon's Black Friday page and check back often!
As with most Amazon purchases, many of these deals will be eligible for free Super Saver Shipping, as well as free two-day shipping for all of you Amazon Prime customers.
"When it comes to holiday gift shopping there are three things customers want: low prices, items to be in-stock and ready to ship, and a convenient shopping experience," said Sally Fouts, spokesperson for Amazon. "So in addition to our everyday low prices, customers will find exceptional deals in our Black Friday Deals store starting today all the way through Black Friday. These are deals customers won't want to miss."
