Want to avoid the crowds on Friday, but still get some good deals on gifts (and maybe some things you just for yourself)?  No need to fear, most retailers now have their best deals available online too. Here are some of the best deals we’ve seen for online Black Friday shopping.

One tip:  When looking at the circulars, make sure to read any fine print about if the deal is available online or just in the physical stores.
