I found a few good deals on kitchen items, like a KitchenAid stand mixer (kitchen and dining writer Emma Wartzman says Black Friday is often the best time to buy one), as well as some Ninja blenders.

From Beats headphones to a Micahel Kors winter coat, folks will actually want a gift with your name on the "From" tag.

PM EST After weeks of waiting to make it officially, Black Friday has arrived. We're tracking the best deals here, adding new ones when we find them, noting which products have dropped to record-low pricing and which have sold out.
