Black Friday used to be a chaotic weekend fiasco, but nowadays, you can get pretty much all of your discounted shopping done before Thanksgiving even arrives. You just have to look out for retailers’ early Black Friday sales, which we see more and more of every year. Walmart officially announced that its own early deals would begin on November 11. But really, there are already thousands of discounted picks to browse through in the retailer’s sale section.

I had a look and saw some amazing markdowns on home decor of all kinds, as well as highly coveted tech devices from top brands like Apple and Samsung. You might even snag a new Christmas tree for a great price! Below, I’ve rounded up my favorite sale picks, many of which would also make wonderful holiday gifts if you don’t end up buying them for yourself. Do yourself a solid and get your shopping done early this time around. Then, you can truly enjoy the holidays when they get here!

Most importantly, you can’t beat the sound quality.

Deputy commerce editor Alicia loves this mirror, which looks similar to a $1,000 version. “I think that it adds a touch of elegance and also helps establish my living room area as a space that’s very separate from my kitchen (which is not divided by any wall),” she wrote. “Luckily, I have a lot of natural light in this space, and during the day, the light bounces off the mirror and makes the entire apartment brighter.”
