With the help of deal-tracking sites such as BradsDeals, dealnews, FatWallet, and RetailMeNot, we’ve rounded up a list of 20 outstanding sales available to online shoppers on Black Friday weekend. How good are the offers? Well, the deals from Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Easy Spirit, and Land’s End aren’t in the top 20 — and they are all hosting 30% off sitewide sales.
