Hasta La Gadget!

Toys “R” Us understands the true spirit of the holiday (naturally, I’m speaking specifically about Cyber Monday–we can talk more about Christmas and Chanukah, et al. at a later date, if you’d like). The toy store is offering up all manner of deals on all manner of products.

Among the discounts are a few blanket deals–things like $10 off of all Kinect for Xbox 360 titles and 60 percent off of Zhu Zhu Pets. We’ve got a small sampling of some of the site’s best deals, after the jump.

Keeping with the modern American capitalist tradition of upping the ante a little bit ever year, Walmart has turned “Cyber Monday” into “Cyber Week,” offering deals all week long, until the online stock on said products runs out–and judging from the mega-retailer’s site, the ploy is working. A number of products are already grayed out on Walmart.com.

Walmart’s offering a number of pretty good looking deals on brand names, including Apple, Microsoft, Nintendo, RCA, and more. Check out some of the choice deals, after the jump.

It looks like we’re all doing our patriotic duty and spending more. Digital business analytics company comScore has reported that Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, saw $648 million in online sales, making it the biggest online spending day in 2010 and showing a 9 percent increase over 2009’s Black Friday. All those pre-Black Friday deals worked their magic, as well, as Thanksgiving Day saw a 28 percent increase in online spending, totaling $407 million.

Other winners in the online spending rush are the sites that organize and publicize Black Friday deals. comScore analyzed eight Black Friday deal sites for the five day period that ended with Black Friday and compared it with the previous year. Black-Friday.net led the group with 3.1 million unique visitors, up 42 percent from the previous year.

The extended weekend of savings continues with a slew of Cyber Monday deals from retailers like Best Buy. If you couldn’t make it out to the stores this weekend, due to traffic, turkey coma, or just good, old fashioned agoraphobia, retailers are rolling out the bargains for the latest consumer holiday.

Best Buy’s got a jump on things with a two-day Cyber Monday event. For today (Sunday) and tomorrow, the site is offering all manner of deals on electronics. Check out some of the better deals, after the jump.

Black Friday is well under way, and while the morning rush is over, the lines will no doubt last well into the night. You can either brave the traffic and risk a potential trampling, or you can do your shopping online and consider it something of an early Cyber Monday gift to yourself.

If you’ve got a young one on your shopping list, be sure to check out some of Toys “R” Us’s best tech deals for this Black Friday.
