Want a jump start on planning your Black Friday shopping strategy? A lot of the deals have been leaked to the media and the deals this year are pretty amazing.

Retailers know that families are holding onto their cash and downsizing their holiday spending this year. In an effort to entice us out of our tight-wad ways, retailers are dangling big screen TVs over our heads instead of carrots. For example,  Sears slashed prices on its TVs by $500 on already discounted prices for Black Friday.

In a year when deep discounts aren’t enough to fill up the stores, shoppers should look for coupons to enhance their savings as well as giftcard incentives on some purchases. Stores are going to great lengths to get shoppers to come in and spend this year.

Video games and other electronics are also big doorbusters on this unofficial national shopping holiday.

Check out a few of these finds from Target:

• Polaroid V130 2″ Color LCD Camcorder – $39.00
• Digital Decor Color LCD Key Chain Holds 48 Pictures – $10.00
