November is officially here and that means Black Friday and Cyber Monday — arguably the two biggest shopping days of the holiday season — are right around the corner. Black Friday and Cyber Monday used to be much bigger deals when they were the only time you could lock in major savings on holiday gifts.

The burgeoning phenomenon, which falls on Tuesday, Dec. 3, this year, sees retailers offer special one-day deals and discounts on airline flights, cruises and hotels.

It's official — Walmart's Black Friday shopping event will kick off early on Monday, November 11 (in-store shopping begins November 15). The retailer recently released its much-anticipated Black Friday ad, and we are pleased to announce that the deals don't disappoint.
