With less than a month until the Black Friday shopping sales, the advertisements are starting to roll out.

Best Buy is having an event on Nov. 8, according to coupon and savings website GottaDeal.com. The three-hour event is a preview to Black Friday and will only be at select stores.

Best Buy will not offer the deals online, according to its website.

Amazon.com’s countdown to Black Friday begins the day after Halloween, with deals of the day throughout November. Black Friday offers from Amazon will also be posted via the twitter account @amazondeals.

The GottaDeal.com website also has the full, 80-page Toys-R-Us “Great Big Christmas Book” catalog posted.

The site took data from the last five years to figure out when retailers are most likely to share their Black Friday ads. It has a calendar for consumers and says it’s likely most will be out Nov. 10-11.
