Brad Wilson, owner of BradsDeals.com, has analyzed the ads from various national retailer chains, and the winner of the best deals is Walmart. In its doorbusters, the last generation of iPad Mini is selling for $299, with a $100 Walmart gift card included; a 32-inch TV for just $98; and a 60-inch Vizio TV for just $688.

While many are wary of the overcrowded stores and the pushing and shoving, Walmart is prepared to ensure that those who arrive between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Thanksgiving night will get what they want; if the store is out of the item a customer wants, the store will give a voucher to buy the doorbuster items at the price online.

Meanwhile, Best Buy and Target are among the top three go-to national retailers for Black Friday deals. According to Michael Brim of BFAds.net, who analyzes Black Friday ads, Best Buy is offering a 55-inch LED TV from LG for just $500, a 65-inch Samsung TV for $1,000. In addition, while iPad 2 is still retailed for $400, it will be sold for just $300.

As for iPad Air, Target is selling the 16GB model for just $470 - $20 less than the retail price - and will include a $100 Target gift card.

Among the tablets to watch for, Best Buy is selling Microsoft Surface tablet for just $199 - retailing at $349.

Meanwhile, for those who wants to avoid the crowded shopping experiences, the best bet would be to go online and shop at Amazon for the Black Friday deals and the Cyber Monday deals.
