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.

Major markdowns include a 55-inch TV for $178, 75% off a lightweight stick vacuum and Emeril Lagasse's air fryer for just $50.

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.
