Roundup of online only Black Friday sales
Don't feel like waiting in line with anxious folks after a satisfying turkey feast? You can get your shopping done by hitting up the retailers' websites but be forewarned: some items could already be all sold out due to early Black Friday sales, and you may have a hard time just accessing these sites now (GameStop.com is down as I write). Here is a list of online retailers that are not indexed in ZDNet's Ultimate Black Friday 2011 guide to deals and steals for your shopping convenience. By all means, use our guide as a reference point to judge whether a deal is hot or not. Good luck!
