Brads is also predicting the best prices on the most popular gift items. He predicts that this is the only time Apple will discount iPods by 10 percent, offering the iPod Nano ( http://www.bradsdeals.com/go/p/19164) at $134. He also predicts consumers will find a $300 laptop ( http://www.bradsdeals.com/computers-catid-5.html) that is sufficiently equipped for most users. And he says TV prices ( http://www.bradsdeals.com/televisions-catid-6d.html) will drop to new all-time lows. Expect a 32" LCD TV for $350 and a 42" 720P Plasma TV for $500.

"These are difficult times for holiday shoppers and day-after-Thanksgiving deals aren't just for the frugal. With increases in unemployment, foreclosures, gas prices and food prices, as well as decreases in consumer credit, discretionary spending and overall confidence, consumers will spend more on Friday, November 28th, but spend less overall during the 2008 holidays," said Brad.
