Black Friday 2012 Staples Ad Features Google Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire Units; Gift Cards Included

After RadioShack leaked its special prices for Black Friday 2012, it’s now the turn of Staples to leak its hottest offers. Those include a bunch of Amazon tablets, obviously the Nexus 7 and the Lenovo A2107 fresh affordable slate. For those who don’t know, Black Friday takes place on November 23rd and involves major price reductions and special offers for buyers.

Staples only lists 7 inch Android tablets this time in the ad that hit the web. So, it appears that you’ll be buying a 16 GB Nexus 7 for $199.99, while the 32 GB Nexus 7 goes for $249.99. The Amazon Kindle Fire goes for $159, bundled with a $20 Staples gift card, while the 16 GB Amazon Kindle Fire HD is $199, bundled with the same gift card. Add 16 GB more and a Kindle Fire HD costs $249, once again with gift card.

And finally, the hottest offer of the bunch is the 8GB Lenovo A2017, that goes for $149.99 . Frankly speaking, I’m not surprised or impressed by these offers and I think they could have done better actually.. Maybe the smartphones will get better offers, or maybe tablets on contracts, who knows? Expect to be surprised by the pricing of the ASUS Transformer tablets and also the Samsung Galaxy Tab units from this year.

Sam’s Club Black Friday flyer shows Galaxy S3 for 96 cents

As retailers start gearing up for the biggest shopping day of the year, we’re already getting a pretty good idea of what sort of deal to expect come Black Friday. As has been the case for the past several years, expect smartphones and tablets to top holiday wishlists everywhere. If your loved one happens to want a shiny new Samsung Galaxy S3, Sam’s Club looks like a good place to camp out come the Friday following Thanksgiving.

According to their flyer that will make the rounds ahead of November 23rd, the Galaxy S3 will be available for a mere 96 cents. A qualified two-year service agreement is required to achieve such pricing, but it is unclear if the advertised price will apply to all US carrier options. For those that plan to avoid long lines by instead shopping online at home, it’s worth noting that this deal is only available in stores.

Keep your eyes peeled for word of other great Black Friday deals. Whether your shopping for family and friends or just looking to treat yourself, there are definitely going to be plenty of opportunities to save a bundle.
