As expected, Amazon is offering a number of Black Friday deals all week long and through Cyber Monday, with top discounts on big screen TVs, headphones, cameras and vacuums.
This year, the e-tailer is also doing its part to encourage shopping with small businesses, with a huge promotional push behind the thousands of independent sellers on Amazon.com. The company is also launching a give back program to help support both local and national charities.

How to Shop Amazon and Small Businesses
While there are calls by some to boycott Amazon on Black Friday in favor of supporting small businesses, the online retailer has introduced thousands of Small Business Holiday Deals from November 26 – November 30. Customers can also shop for gifts from independent artists, designers, makers and authors through Amazon’s Small Business Gift Guide.
Much like eBay or Etsy, independent sellers can set up a storefront on Amazon, helping them reach a much larger audience than through their own sites or local boutiques. The most popular storefronts are found in the Amazon Handmade section, which offers a ton of unique jewelry, toys, stationery, housewares and made-to-order gifts. You can also read up on each artist in their profile to find out where they’re located and how everything is produced (as the name suggests, much of these offerings are handmade).
This year, customers who shop on smile.amazon.com/blackfriday can also choose to have a portion of the purchase price from eligible products donated to a charity of their choice.
