    This year’s Black Friday, if we’re being honest with ourselves, started a long time ago.

    Amazon’s Prime Early Preview kicked off the holiday shopping season in October, with many retailers followed by rolling out their own specials weeks ago. But that doesn’t mean the traditional Black Friday—the busy shopping fiesta the day after Thanksgiving— is something bargain hunters skip.

    Doorbusters, the deep discounts on popular items, are plentiful this year, but expect the crowds to be as well. And inventories? That’s anybody’s guess after this year’s supply chain issues that have made certain products difficult to find.
