Check out These Buyer's Guides Ahead of Black Friday

Friday November 21, 2008

Black Friday is less than a week away! Are you as excited as I am? If you are, you're probably looking for news of doorbuster deals, online-only specials, and early bird sales anywhere you can find them.

But what do you do if you find what looks like a great deal, but you're not exactly sure if it's cheap because there's a huge sale, or if it's cheap because it's an older generation of technology that they're trying to sneak in with the rest of the sales just so they can get it off of their shelves? (And yes, that actually happens quite often). You should avoid such situations by reading up on the item you're hoping to find using any of About.com's amazing buyer's guides.

Some of the most popular items on sale will be peripherals like web cams, computer hardware (click here for a glossary of terms), digital cameras, and Mp3 players. Here are links to buyer's guides for all of those items to get you started:

Happy holiday hunting!
