As for Best Buy, the last-minute deals are already underway and are valid through Saturday. Specials include:
Many of the promos are available online only, which might be good news for a lot of you who don't want to brave the crowds this weekend. (I sure don't want to go out there.) But if you want something shipped and delivered by December 25, all orders need to be in by December 21 at 11 AM ET.
Furthermore, Best Buy is continuing its month-long run of free smartphones (with a contract) everyday in December.
