Walmart and its Black Friday Offers

[EN]: It is just never too early to know what the Black Friday offers will be. As stores get to release their plans about that one special day, most people may be making plans to shop already. I should be doing that, too. One advantage it is to know what the best offers will, according to your budget, and when to go get them.

Earlier today, Walmart announced its plans for its two-day Black Friday events. At its stores in the US on both days, the company will do its one-hour Manager’s Specials from 6pm to 7pm and from 8pm to 9pm on Thanksgiving Day, and on Friday, Nov. 29 from 8am to 2pm (the first-ever Manager’s Specials on a Black Friday).

Bill Simon, president and CEO at Walmart U.S., said: “Black Friday is our day – our Super Bowl – and we’re ready to prove once again that no one does it better than Walmart. We’re excited to give our customers an incredible Black Friday with shopping hours that will allow them to take advantage of great prices on Thanksgiving night and all weekend long.”

By the look of these lists, many tech products are in. Even recently-launched games will be down to $34 and $39, while over 100 games will available at $10, $15 and $25. If you still want to buy an Xbox 360, check out the price at the bottom of the list. And, if you want to buy early, just hold on to your shopping temptation. Apple’s iPhone 5C and 5S will also be offered at low prices. Check the list for more info.

One word of advice: check the Walmart web site [http://www.walmart.com/cp/black-friday/1076614] on the morning of Nov. 28 to get ahead on sales.
