AM EST The week of Black Friday is finally here. We're tracking all the best deals across retailers and updating this list as things come in and go out of stock. The time is nigh. In a matter of days our bellies — and shopping carts — will be full.

Most of the early Black Friday deals I’ve found are available on Amazon, but highlights include the newest version of the Kindle Paperwhite e-reader, the Ember Mug 2 (which keeps your coffee hot without having to constantly reheat it), and the Strategist-favorite Loftie alarm clock.

The holiday shopping season is nearly in full swing, but this jolly deal is already live now, just days away from Black Friday: a 9th-generation iPad for $200 -- a discount of $130, thanks to an early Black Friday offer from Best Buy .
