Just like in recent outings, some retailers have already started their pre-Black Friday sales, and many giant companies, both brick-and-mortar and online shopping sites, have put Apple products on their discounts lists.

According to GottaBeMobile, one of the earliest retailers to get their pre-Black Friday sales lists up is Best Buy. This Saturday, the biggest discounts include at least $70 off on an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus for a purchase of an Apple TV. There is also a $100 gift card (an advantage for Best Buy frequent buyers) for every purchase of any MacBook Air, as well as $75 discount for the iPad Air 2 64-GB version.

Best Buy also has deals on other electronics, with a $1,200 discount -- the biggest one -- on the Sony 4K TV. There are also deals on Samsung, consoles like the PS4 and Xbox One, and a combo $200-off on a Surface Pro and three $40 gift cards for the Go Pro Hero 4.

Meanwhile, Tech Radar lists a Walmart ad as maybe one of the best Apple deals for this year. According to the website, Apple fans can get an iPad Mini 2 for just $199, as the retailer rolls back the product's price. Amazon, meanwhile, is one of the retailers that, instead of a limited pre-Black Friday sale, has already announced that their "Countdown to Black Friday Sales." There will be daily bargains, with the culmination – and more product discounts – happening during the Black Friday Sales Week on Nov. 22.

In the meantime, as Apple itself is still waiting for a much closer period to the Black Friday before announcing its list of discounts, some observers have already gotten their wish lists online. Since the Cupertino-based company only wants Apple fans to upgrade their devices, the company may be looking to offer discounts for its recently released products to entice fans who are still of two minds about changing their current Apple devices.
