If you are one of the millions of consumers who intend to do just that, start your Black Friday journey by perusing this list of hot deals that are already popping up online. Some of them begin before Black Friday even arrives. iPad Air Who needs Black Friday for a great deal on Apple's AAPL newly-released iPad? The 16GB Wi-Fi-only iPad Air has an MSRP of $499.

As of this writing, Best Buy has not adjusted the price of the iPad Air. But customers who request the price match (and show proof of Wal-Mart's reduction) will receive the $20 savings. Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Network GameStop GME appears to have some promising deals lined up for November 29. According to a leaked ad obtained by Kotaku, GameStop will sell an Xbox 360 bundle (which includes a 250GB console, Halo 4 and Tomb Raider) for $199. There's a PlayStation 3 bundle with a comparable hard drive, the critically acclaimed game The Last of Us and a copy of Batman Arkham Origins. Better still, GameStop will sell a full-year subscription to PlayStation Plus (which normally retails for $49.99 and is required to play games online with PlayStation 4) for $29.99. Kindle Fire HD Want the cheapest tablet available? Black Friday Sniper claims that the seven-inch Kindle Fire HD (the standard tablet -- not to be confused with the Kindle Fire HDX) is likely to receive a $20 price cut on Black Friday. If true, the cheapest iteration would drop from $139 to $119. Who could resist a tablet at that price? PlayStation 4 Games Sony's SNE new console isn't even out yet, but the games are already set to receive a discount.
